Grief
Support
|
 |
Holding a funeral or memorial service for your loved one
is a first step in the grieving process. During this
time, family members and friends have an opportunity to
say their goodbyes, share strong emotions, and comfort
one another. |
 |
In the days, weeks and months following the service,
people continue to need others to lean on for
understanding, encouragement and guidance. Local and
national support groups are available to help during
this time of transition. |
|
These groups provide a comforting environment for
expressing emotions through each phase of the grieving
process. To learn more about grief support services,

and support options with your funeral director. |
