SUMMARY:Death\, Dying\, Danishes (Bennington)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]The VNA & Hospice of the Southwest Region (VNAHSR) offers a discussion group designed to address a topic many have difficulty talking about: death and dying. \nLed by Hospice volunteers\, the objective of Death\, Dying\, & Danishes is to increase awareness of death and to encourage people to make the most of their lives.
