Paul Malley, president of Aging with Dignity, and elder law attorney Kandace E. Rudd will discuss advance directives for medical care and wills for distribution of personal property. Paul Malley will guide attendees through the Five Wishes document, which helps adults consider and document how they want to be cared for at the end of life. Kandace E. Rudd will then discuss different types of wills and how wills can be prepared. Attendees will receive a free copy of Five Wishes.
Dying is an unavoidable part of human life, yet many of us find it awkward or uncomfortable to talk about. Each week of this six-part series features compassionate professionals who will speak about different aspects of death and dying. Attendees will engage in meaningful conversations about a journey we will all one day make.
