The Death Chicks, Myste Lynn and Patty Burgess, are death educators who bring a light touch to the serious subject of end-of-life issues. The program’s motto is “Tune In. Be Informed. Die Well.” As they say on their page: “We don’t judge. We don’t have religious affiliations. We simply want to put this death thing on the table and have a good ol’ curious chat about it.”
The panel will discuss questions regarding near death experiences, religious ideas about the afterlife, and other possibilities. Joining Myste, Patty and Gail in this conversation about afterlife questions are:
