    &lt;p&gt;In this episode Donna taps into a topic we often shy away from: the intersection of mortality and legacy. She welcomes Danny Brooks, a second-generation funeral director whose mission goes beyond the somber trappings of death to celebrate life in its final farewell. Danny, hailing from Brooks Funeral Home in San Antonio, brings a refreshing perspective to coping with the inevitable, offering insights on how to pre-plan with dignity and a personal touch.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From the practicalities of navigating Veteran benefits to the creative possibilities of themed funerals, Danny demystifies the end-of-life process, emphasizing the importance of preparation and the relief it brings to grieving families. The conversation also tackles the nitty-gritty of funeral costs, the transferability of pre-need plans, and the innovative ways to memorialize loved ones, like turning ashes into keepsakes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With a blend of humor and heart, this episode is a must-hear for anyone looking to face the taboo of death head-on, ensuring their final act is as meaningful and stress-free as possible for those they leave behind. It's a call to action for Veterans and civilians alike to consider the legacy they wish to leave and the peace of mind that comes with being prepared.&lt;/p&gt;
