Monday’s Hometown Hero is Ed Teryakian.

Ed Teryakian is working with the Orange County Department on Aging to help get the word out about a special gathering to help people understand the “Death With Dignity” issue.

And with so many of us dealing with older adults’ issues these days, whether it be for ourselves or our parents or other loved ones, this is a very important discussion to have. It’s going to take place at the Friday Center in Chapel Hill on Thursday, March 17.
