Be the Extra Support Your Families Need -- And Get Media Attention, Too!

Regent Ballroom, Hilton Columbus @ Easton

Presented by Allison Gilbert, Author

Taking intentional steps to remember loved ones is key to healing. Individuals who honor family and friends, who proactively keep them present in their lives, almost always fare better emotionally than those who don’t. In this first-ever session offered at OFDA, author and nationally recognized grief expert Allison Gilbert reveals new, innovative ways to help families remember and celebrate the family and friends they never want to forget. The strategies you learn will enable your funeral home to generate widespread radio, print, and online media attention. Gilbert has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and on CNN, FOX, and MSNBC.

Allison will be selling/signing the following books after her presentation:

Passed and Present: Keeping Memories of Loved Ones Alive $16

Always Too Soon: Voices of Support for Those Who Have Lost Both Parents $15

Parentless Parents: How the Loss of Our Mothers and Fathers Impacts the Way We Raise Our Children $10

She will accept cash or credit card onsite. 

Two Continuing Education Hours.

Allison is generously sponsored in part by Homesteaders Life Co. and National Funeral Directors Association.
