Last year, our members Tony de Losada and Phil Trapp became inspired to educate SIR Branch 8 members and their families about topics dealing with End-of-Life Planning. These health and lifestyle topics will face all of us later in our lives. However, the planning for those challenges should begin much earlier before we are confronted with difficult problems that arise at the end of our lives.
Tony and Phil provided the inspiration, formed an ELP Committee, developed an agenda, and recruited expert presenters to share their knowledge and recommendations to our members. Four ELP sessions were conducted in the Summer and Fall of 2024. We hope that you were able to attend those sessions.
Now, short videos have been created from those sessions. They capture the essence of the beneficial information that was presented. Whether you attended those sessions or not, you will benefit by viewing the short videos.
