Due to a scheduling conflict at the Hall, we will meet on Wednesday, 2:00 – 3:30 pm in the Pioneer Room. For those of you who had Thursday marked on your calendars, our sincere apologies.

In this meeting Kira will share reflections on her experience with her mother's death. Kathryn MacDuffee died in June at Comox Hospice after a prolonged illness. Her body was returned to Cortes, lovingly prepared, and laid to rest in the natural burial area of the Mansons Landing Cemetery.

Each monthly meeting consists of about a ˝ hour for sharing about death, dying and grief, followed by a presentation, then a question-and-answer period and discussion or reflections.

The DeathCaring Collective is a dedicated group of individuals who are enthusiastic about opening up conversations and learning more about death, dying, and grief. As we share, learn, educate and provide additional options in our community, our comfort with death grows. This enables us to live more vibrantly and with greater intention today.

Everyone is welcome.
