Name: Wine & Wishes – LGBTQ+ Edition at FIREFLY
Date: June 9, 2025
Time: 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM EDT
Event Description:

Hospice of the Piedmont invites you to sip, connect, and plan with pride at Wine & Wishes—LGBTQ+ Edition. Enjoy your favorite beverage while an LGBTQ+ affirming panel shares practical guidance for crafting a dignified, self-defined final chapter. Whether you identify as LGBTQ or are an ally who may someday care for an LGBTQ loved one, you’ll find clear answers in a welcoming space.

The conversation will cover:

  • End-of-life medical care – hospice, palliative options, and honoring identity in care settings
  • Funeral planning – inclusive services, respectful language, and cost-smart pre-planning
  • End-of-life legal documentation – wills, powers of attorney, and protecting chosen family
  • Home burials & body preparation – legal rights, natural burial, and meaningful rituals

Bring your questions, raise your glass (or coffee mug), and together we’ll prepare thoughtfully for the future.
