For those dealing with the loss of a loved one, the celebration of the holiday season can be very emotional and highly difficult. What are the best ways to cope with grief during the holidays? Here are a few suggestions from Amy Goyer for AARP:

1. Only do what feels right. It's up to you to decide which activities, traditions, or events you can handle. Don't feel obligated to participate in anything that doesn't feel comfortable.

2. Accept your feelings, whatever they might be. Everyone takes his or her own path in grief and mourning. However you feel, accept it. And accept the inevitable ups and downs.

3. Call on your family and friends. Talk with loved ones about your emotions. Be honest about how you'd like to do things this year.

4. Focus on the kids. Think of your children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or neighborhood children and how your participation in holiday activities affects them. Perhaps you can allow yourself to absorb their joy by joining them in activities that are important to them and excuse yourself when you reach your limit.

5. Scale back. If the thought of many holiday activities feels painful, overwhelming, or inappropriate this year, cutting back may help.

6. Give. During times of grief, sometimes the biggest comfort is to give to others.

7. Acknowledge those who have passed on. For example, donate items to a charitable organization in their name. Light a candle for them, or place the deceased’s photo on the Christmas tree or among holiday decorations.

As funeral professionals, we are aware of the additional stress the holiday season can place upon the lives of grieving individuals. We encourage people to take good care of themselves and to obtain the support they need.

Whatever your personal situation may be this year, we at Johnson's Funeral Home wish you a warm and comforting holiday season.

The Grief at the Table Where You Used to Be
- Liz Newman

The holiday season,
it snuck up on me
and along with it
a most silent and weighty grief.

Quietly, it settles in
and pulls up a seat
makes itself comfortable in
the spot where you used to be.

But all the same
I acknowledge it
I sit with it today,
on this milestone, this heavy holiday.

Can you pass the gravy?
and maybe a cherished memory?
Let the laughter flow
or let the tears fall freely?
Today can be whatever we need it to be.

Because there’s nothing normal
about a holiday without you
so I will lament and I will ache,
mingle with the grief and gratitude,

With the love and the loss,
painful firsts, mournful lasts.
a year that reminds us
of time gone much too fast.

Because the grief sits
at the table where you used to be,
but your love helps me through it
and keeps me company.

And no matter what it brings
to the table, I’ll take my seat,
I’ll face it, I’ll feel it
In honor of your memory.

We feel that it’s important for mothers to have a comfortable place to nurse when needed. In addition to our new children’s room, we have designated a space just for moms with a privacy screen.

At Johnson’s, it’s about our community and serving it to the best of our ability.
