On April 29, 2009 the Lafayette Parish Medical Society joined forces with the Lafayette BAR Association to put on a public forum.  The event was held at the Lafayette BAR building, with about 30 people in attendance. Greg Landry, BAR member, and Dr. Lonn Guidry, LPMS President spoke on "End of Life Planning."  Greg Landry touched on the legal side of having living wills and powers of attorneys and Dr. Guidry on the medical side.  All attendees were able to complete the documents with the assistance of attorneys on site and were able to have their documents notarized before leaving.  Margaret Morrow with the Alliance was also on hand to provide the attendees with cds to provide additional information such as bank accounts, insurance policies, property information and other pertinent information to be stored in one place.
