Nobody likes to talk about death, yet a cultural paradigm shift is taking place where the macabre reaper of the past is being replaced with a contemporary, progressive attitude toward end-of-life. Marin County's 97-percent cremation rate reflects this trend. Next year, a third of our population will be over the age of 50. As the Boomers face their own mortality, they've begun to transform the last taboo: death. Sherman and Stathis, principals of SevenPonds.com, will immerse the audience in a surprising spectrum of end-of-life choices that fully empower all people to die and grieve as they wish.
