End of Life Options New Mexico (EOLONM) local volunteers will be showing death related films from 10 am to 3 pm on November 2, 2024 in honor of Day of the Dead at the Silco theater. Viewing is free and suggested for those over 14.
Each film will be followed by a discussion involving audience members. "Death is a subject many people in our culture avoid. It happens everyday, but we rarely see it, because it is accompanied by harsh realities, " says group member Dr. Twana Sparks. "People are often reluctant to have necessary conversations with others. They neglect to plan." Karen deGenevieve FNP adds, "It is so important that your next of kin and family know and respect your wishes."
