Death is one of life’s few certainties, yet many of us avoid talking about it until it’s too late.
Join us for a thought-provoking in-person panel discussion featuring death and grief literacy thought leaders Amy Firth and Ben Gibson, alongside Denise Ora, CEO of Metropolitan Memorial Parks. Together, we’ll explore how families can reclaim a meaningful role in caring for the people they love, why conversations about end-of-life can be one of the greatest gifts we leave behind, and how we can create more personal and meaningful farewells.
Join the discussion:
Why talking about death is a gift to those we love.
Planning ahead as a final act of care.
