    Participants will also have opportunities to speak with local professionals, including Paul D. Eash, Attorney at Law specializing in elder law and estate planning issues, Cindy Danster, Customer Advocate at IU Goshen Home Medical, Home Care & Hospice, as well as Amy Manifold and her husband, Larson Manifold, co-owner of Firefly Home Care LLC.
