This unique event is designed to help you achieve a peaceful, dignified death. We’ll be joined for lunch by expert advisors who will guide your end-of-life decision-making according to your individual needs.

  • Bill Simmons – Necessary End-of-Life Documents

  • Brian Graham, MD – Hospice, Aid in Dying, VSED
  • Sally Hall, MD – Final Exit Network
  • Lena Olsher – Arrangements for the body

The experts will not be delivering formal talks or presentations. Instead, our audience will steer the discussion with their questions.
