Exploring Elderhood Together
Thursday, April 16, LMH Main Room, 1-2:30pm. Exploring Choices in After-death Care There are many things to consider when making decisions about after-death care. Please join us for an informative presentation by Patti Muldoon, President of the Funeral Consumers Alliance of Eastern Massachusetts. FCAEM is affiliated with the national FCA, a non-profit organization empowering people to choose simple, meaningful, affordable after-death arrangements. Patti is also an end-of-life doula and the Aging Resources Coordinator (ARCH) for New England Quakers. She will give us an overview of the practical options available for advance planning for deathcare. She focuses on considering the values and preferences of your loved one and family when planning for a funeral, cremation, burial, and “greener" choices for after-death care arrangements. An abbreviated list of resources will be offered. There will be time for questions at the end of the program.
