“Bringing Death Back to Life”

“Bringing Death Back to Life”

This event has been postponed. Stay tuned for updates on a future date.

Join us for a day long community building event to bring death back to life! The day will include: a panel discussion, light lunch and refreshments, a stand-up comic, workshops and a playback theatre performance in the evening after a supper break (on your own).

The morning will be a moderated panel discussion about how we got where we are — a society that is in denial about death.

The panel will be moderated by Catherine Tremblay, founder of the Conscious Living and Dying Community.
Panelists are:

Jerry Cannon – Co-Chair, Dying With Dignity, Vancouver Chapter
Ngaio Davis – Owner, Classic Cremation & Funeral Services
Jerry Ewen – cancer patient
Stephen Garrett – death educator, speaker and author
Sarah Lipsett – Grief Therapist
Jeffrey Young – Celebrant
