Finding Comfort in Times of Loss
Everyone experiences grief differently. There is no “right way” to mourn, and no timeline for healing.
What matters is allowing yourself to feel, reflect, and reach out when you need support.
We are here for you — to listen, to guide, and to help you find peace, step by step.
Understanding Grief
Grief is love with nowhere to go.
Whether you feel sadness, anger, confusion, or even numbness — know that these are natural responses to loss.
You're not alone, and there is no wrong way to feel.
Ways to Cope and Heal
-
Talk to someone you trust
-
Take time to rest
-
Remember your loved one with photos, stories, or rituals
-
Be kind to yourself — healing takes time

“Grief is the price we pay for love. But in love, we find the strength to heal.”
We're Here to Support You
Our staff can provide resources, listening ears, and help you find the support you need.
Whether you're preparing a service or coping after one, we’re just a phone call away.
Accepting a loss
It’s okay to grieve.
When we tell someone to “be strong” or quickly change the subject, it can unintentionally send the message that their pain is unwelcome.
Instead, let them know their feelings are valid. Grief is not something to fix — it’s something to carry, together. Simply being present and allowing space for sorrow is one of the kindest gifts we can offer.
