Discussion on Talking About Death Published

community · 2018

Leo Simmons shared a personal reflection on the importance and positive effects of talking openly about death. He encourages rational and fearless discussion to help with planning and legacy considerations.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
