A limited block of rooms has been set aside for retreat attendees, and that block will expire on December 13, 2019. Beyond that date, at the option of the hotel, the room rate may increase, thereby increasing the currently listed reservation rates. Those guests attending by themselves who wish to take advantage of the lower double or triple occupancy rates can request assignment of a roommate of the same gender as space and interest permits. We will do our best to accommodate you and notify you if and when we have a match. This is not a guaranteed situation, and should we not find a suitable roommate, you will be responsible for the published rate for your final room accomodation type. If you know of others who are attending and you all wish to share one room, please send an email to events@foreverfamilyfoundation.org after all parties have made and paid their respective reservations for the retreat. If you are paying by check, simply include a note.

Italian-born Scottish author and speaker, Piero Calvi-Parisetti, is a medical doctor with a scholarly passion for psychical research, especially for the study of scientific evidence pointing to survival of human personality after bodily death. He authored several books on the subject, and developed an original patient education approach directed to those who suffer because of the loss of a loved one and those who are in fear of impending death (their own or a loved one’s). "Love Knows No Death," his newest project that he donated to Forever Family Foundation, introduces the concept of a self-help workbook with an accompanying video course based on this approach. His latest project involves personalized grief and bereavement counseling based upon the Continuing Bonds approach.

Angelina Diana is motivated to work towards the greater good of the world and is dedicated to the work of healing through mediumship, but she did not begin to actively embrace her abilities until her adult years. While working as a radio newscaster on an assignment in exploring the legitimacy of psychic mediums, Angelina discovered her own heritage. Fight it as she did, Angelina was being brought down a pathway that would force her to leave her journalistic career behind, and replace it with something even she had a hard time explaining at first. Angelina has ever since enjoyed a successful career in mediumship work. She was the original medium certified by Forever Family Foundation, sits on its Medium Advisory Board, and was instrumental in helping to create and host the Signs of Life Radio show. She also does volunteer work for FFF and many other worthy causes, is based in Connecticut, and does private and group readings. She can be heard on the radio on Connecticut’s KISS 95.7 with Courtney & Kiss in the Morning show. Her website is www.angelinadiana.com.
Renata, a certified medium of both Forever Family Foundation and The Windbridge Institute, has been communicating with those in the afterlife since the age of three. The spiritual world was not something her family understood, and although what she was experiencing was very real, she learned that she could not discuss her ability with most of her family without severe repercussions.
It was not until her third near death experience that Renata began to realize that maybe what she thought was her biggest curse in life might be a gift. In 1998, during the physical healing process from an automobile accident, Renata’s beloved brother took his own life. After his passing she fell into a deep depression, until one night months later when she had a visit from him. During this visit, her brother told her that it was now time for her to begin using her abilities and gifts to help others. His visit transformed her life forever. www.renatasantorelliweb.com
