"The workshop material was easy to understand and I enjoyed the humor
in the presentation for what may be a difficult task to do. I hope
to hear and learn more in a Hospice workshop I'll soon take part in."
Carolyn Rovner, MSW, St. Paul, MN
"I'll tell my colleagues that the concept of an ethical will is definitely
worth learning about. It may make you think about how you live your life."
Margit Berg, St. Paul, MN
"Very usable info. I will definitely use this with my hospice clients.
I think it will also help people begin to talk about their deeper issues.
I plan to discuss this at our staff meeting tomorrow!"

Comments from community workshop participants:
Volunteers' comments about the 'Ethical Will Coaching" Volunteer Training
"Not only did I learn an invaluable skill to use with the seniors that
I visit, but I learned an invaluable life skill as well. The questions
and exercises I learned in the workshop allow a person to take a look at
what is or has been most important in their life. Another gift for me is
that I used some of the skills with my children's grandfather to help him
to share his stories and values with them before it was too late."
Pat Levine, community volunteer, Mpls. MN.
"My volunteers were captivated by Dr. Baines' ethical will workshop--both by the useful material and by his wonderful presentation. He engaged his audience to make the presentation very 'user friendly and accessible to each participant.
My volunteers left the training grateful that they had new tools to use in engaging clients in a meaningful relationship. The volunteers left the training eager to start helping clients write their own ethical wills. They were so pleased with the training that they are encouraging all of my volunteers who missed the workshop to take his next available workshop."
