#25 — How We Die In Oregon...Naturally - Parts 1 & 2

Our friends John and podcast host Nancy join us for an intimate discussion about death in Oregon, USA.

Almost all 50 US states have State-supported home funeral options. Home funerals can address and honor a complex emotional time that fosters family and community to come together to create a unique and meaning experience of saying goodbye to our loved ones.

John opted to have his Mother's funeral at home, with assistance from death doula and our friend Nancy Ward. John shares the story of his Mother's 2023 illness and death using hospice followed by a home funeral he designed with his family, with assistance from Nancy.

We also share a conversation about the end of life and home funeral and natural burial for our Doberman, Dino, who died nine years ago.
