The experience of grief is unique to everyone, but learning about grief and sharing your experience with others can provide comfort after the loss of a loved one.

Grief is a natural, necessary and highly personal experience.  While grief does not follow a timetable, it does ease over time. Facing grief and working through it, can result in newfound peace, strength, and purpose.

We offer 13 months of bereavement support to the family after the death of their loved who received hospice care. This includes phone calls, personal visits from bereavement volunteers, and subscription to a series of newsletters aimed at helping people work through the grief process.  

We also offer grief support services that are open to anyone in the community dealing with the loss of a
loved one.

“Don’t wait and do not be afraid to join a group. Everyone has to grieve. The groups are very welcoming and caring. Members of the group are all ages, some members have lost a spouse while others a sibling or a child but we all share the same issues. ”
--Jim, Mending Hearts Support Group participant
