Who likes to talk about death?

We do!

The VNA & Hospice of the Southwest Region (VNAHSR) (formerly called the Franklin County Home Health Agency) is offering a discussion group designed to address a topic many have difficulty talking about: death and dying.

Death, Dying, & Danishes will be held on Saturday, May 18, 2024 from 10 -11:30 am at Tatro's, 14 Kingman St in St. Albans. Drop in, and feel free to leave early. We plan to hold them every 6 weeks or so in different locations.

Led by Hospice a volunteer and a hospice social worker, the objective of Death, Dying, & Danishes is simply to have open conversation about death and dying, increase awareness of our mortality and to encourage people to make the most of their lives. There is no religious or philosophical agenda or teaching. Sharing food creates a relaxed environment where the group can join open, honest conversations to explore the questions about life, dying and grief. People of all ages are encouraged to bring their questions, experiences, and thoughts to the gathering. The goal is simply to provide an opportunity for community members to come together in a relaxed atmosphere over coffee, tea, and goodies to share thought-provoking and life-affirming conversation.

The event is free and open to the public, but purchases are encouraged for host sites. Those looking for more information prior to attending can contact Mary Pleasant at 802.442.0540 or by emailing at mary.pleasant@vnahsr.org https://www.vermontvisitingnurses.org/
