How to Improve Death Literacy in a Community

Death educator Lee Warren believes preparing for death in advance makes a good death possible. 

Over a period of two years, she experienced several deaths in her small community of 125 people, teaching her the best lessons about death as she cared for them.  

Those deaths, and the generous people who experienced them, offered an incredible opportunity for Lee to reweave a more holistic approach to end-of-life than the one generally offered to us in the U.S.  The outcome of stewarding those deaths together as a community,  including after-death care, home funerals, and home burials, was life changing and heart opening for Lee.  She has channeled the wisdom she learned into work as a Death Educator and End-of-Life Preparation Guide.
