CHAMBERSBURG >> Featured speakers at the 2014 Spirituality and Aging Conference on May 6 will be Gerald and Marlene Kaufman, authors of "Necessary Conversations," who will discuss those important talks that families should begin as parents age such as finances, medical care, end of life wishes, living arrangements and when to stop driving.

The Kaufmans believe that having direct conversations prevent the necessity of forced conversations in emergency situations and avoids decision making under pressure.

The seminar will take place at Northgate at Menno Haven, 1500 Northfield Drive.

It will begin at 9 a.m. with the talk "Changing Roles"; at 10:30 the topic will be "Parent's Finances"; at 1:15 p.m., "Medical Needs and Safety"; and at 2:15, "Age Diversity as Strength."

Lunch will be served at noon.

Cost is $13 for those registered by April 25, and includes lunch. Cost is $15 for those who register after April 25.

To make reservations, call 1-800-222-6695.
