Die Well Death Education - April 22

Join us on Monday, April 22 from 6:00 - 7:30 p.m. for the first session in the Die Well Death Education Series with host Leona Oceania. (This session was postponed from last month due to presenter illness.) You are welcome to attend one or all of the sessions - no registration is required.

Session one is: Why Talk About Death? In this session we will discuss why talking about death is important, and the benefits it can and does provide. We will also review creating an End-of-Life Plan, the importance of legacy work, hospice & palliative care, as well as funeral and body disposition options. (There are more than you think!)

Die Well Death Education is the passion project of Leona Oceania. Always fascinated with death and baffled by the fact that we don’t talk about the one thing that is going to happen to all of us, she decided to do what she could to encourage that conversation. She has trained to become an End-of-Life Doula, a Home Funeral Guide, a Life Legacy Facilitator, and a Death Educator. She also serves on the board of the Funeral Consumers Alliance of Maine, is the facilitator of a number of Death Cafés in Southern Maine, and is a volunteer with a local hospice organization. She has built a bookcase coffin with the prodigious Chuck Lakin, which is currently in use as a bookcase in her living room until it is needed as a coffin.
