 Grief Support

Because we care, we offer several support programs throughout the year. All programs are free of charge and open to anyone who has a experienced a recent loss of a loved one.
In the Spring and the Fall, we offer bereavement seminars. Each is held at 6:00PM until 8:00PM on Monday evenings and run for eight consecutive weeks. Our facilitator guides the group through a variety of subjects to help each participant come to a better understanding of their individual grief process. The groups tend to bond and become a support base for each other by the end of the eight week program. Our facilitator is Bill Shomo, who is highly recognized in bereavement care and has been helping the bereaved for over 20 years.

We also offer a annual help for the holidays programs. This program in held in October of each year and is designed to prepare recently bereaved families for the upcoming holiday season. This program is also open to anyone who has experienced a loss and is facing the holiday season for the first time since losing their loved one. The program is held on a Saturday afternoon and invitations are sent to every family we have served within the previous 14 months. The program includes a memorial candle lighting ceremony in which each person represented is remembered. Thoughts and ideas are shared on how we can celebrate the holiday season in the midst of our grief. The program is always well attended and the participants are always glad they came.
For more information on any of our support programs, please call or email us.
