Until the latter part of the 19th century, most people were born and died in their own homes. When they were born, their family cared for them; when they died, their family cared for them. Dying, like birthing, was integrated into living. Caring for those who had died was not only the last act of love, it was the first step toward healing.
This workshop will give you information and hands-on practice to prepare you to care for your family member after death at home, and to carry out a home or family-directed funeral with or without the services of a funeral director.
Saturday: 9:00 am – 4:00 pm
Workshop Topics covered:
Advance planning: Utilizing My Final Wishes, WI Health Care Power of Attorney, Living Will & Ethical Will
Meeting Wisconsin legal requirements and required paperwork
Care of the Body
Creating sacred space and home vigils
Family direct cremation & green burial options
