Jason interviews Nora Menkin from The Co-op Funeral Home of People's Memorial regarding decisions around end of life and expenses. 

Nora was working as a stage manager in Seattle when The Co-op Funeral Home of People's Memorial was forming in 2007. She jumped at the chance to be involved with such a wonderful organization. She began as an intern and worked her way up to being named the Managing Funeral Director in 2013, and now Executive Director of People's Memorial Association and The Co-op Funeral Home.
With a background in home funerals, Jewish traditions, and a passion for natural burial and modern funeral practices, Nora strives to help each family make their arrangements according to their needs and wishes. Nora lives in Burien with her husband Nick (yes, they are Nick and Nora) and 9-year-old, Sam.
