Live Well Leave Well: A Workshop to Plan for the End of Life
Saturday, November 16, 9A-3P
And when I die...

...how well will my family  & friends carry on?

Give those who survive you peace of mind and spirit by planning ahead to “leave well.”

We plan for so many things in our life; weddings, children, school, college, buying a home, vacation, retirement... but we are not particularly good at planning for death. And yet, it is the one thing we are all guaranteed will happen one day. 

This workshop covers important things often overlooked that can leave survivors scrambling to figure it all out, helping you to “live well” knowing it’s already planned for them to carry on well.

Join creator and facilitator of A Lifetime Gift™, Shelly Halverson and other speakers to learn what steps can be taken now, to avoid stress later. 

A Lifetime Gift

Featured guest speaker Shelly Halverson will give a 1-hour presentation walking us thru a living document that includes checklists, resources, a life summary, pet care instructions, finances, medical history, important documents, final wishes, personal instructions, and more. 

All the things you know about your world, but who else knows this information if you needed assistance? It’s a gift for you and your loved ones in the event of a major health change or end of life situations.

Creator and facilitator of A Lifetime Gift, Shelly Halverson will be sharing from her multiple, personal experiences, her research, and her insights to be a Certified Celebrant about how to prepare for the end of your life.

Each attendee will receive the A Lifetime Gift resource binder, a $20 value, containing all the materials Ms. Halverson has prepared and presents.
