January 11th - Ask an Angela, our local mortician - Angela Woosley, M.A.
Zoom 7:00-8:30PM CST
If you work with grieving folks and their dead, chances are you have gotten a request or two that came straight out of left field! Maybe you had the answer, or maybe it left you scratching your head. But navigating the rules and practices surrounding care of the dead can make it hard to find out what’s legal and what isn’t. And many funeral home practices are murky, at best.
What’s an end-of-life practitioner to do? Why, Ask a Mortician, of course! In this informal Q&A session, bring your questions, curiosities, and wonderings to local funeral director Angela Woosley. Are you curious about natural burial? Green cremation? Recompose? Home funerals? And when DO you have to be embalmed, anyway? Ask an Angela!
