"Mourning Customs during the 12th - 18th Centuries and their Impact on Society Today", Location to be announced


What have we missed in the form of ritual and closure of a life well spent? Does the future hold more crime and violence in store for all because we have lost the art of "paying our respects" to the dead? Join us for a fascinating evening of information designed to help us step back in time, and discover the benefits of not only honoring our deceased properly, but also becoming more fully human in restoring ritual and respect to our everyday lives, in living respectfully. FREE-NO COST. RSVP necessary for Palos Verdes Estates, California private residence location.
