“Grief is not a disorder, a disease or a sign of weakness. It is an emotional, physical and spiritual necessity, the price you pay for love. The only cure for grief is to grieve.” - Earl Grollman
What emotions do you feel from your grief? Don’t let anyone lead you to think that there is a timeline or any organization to grief. Sometimes grief feels like fear, other times like anxiety, many times sadness, and even it feels like bittersweet moments in the present.

We take great care in answering this common question. Just like adults, children’s grieving journeys can begin at a funeral. So the short answer is yes. The long answer: We think it’s best that you share with your children as much as possible in preparation of what they will experience. Explain to them that there will be people there that are sad, and even crying. Be sure to let them ask as many questions as they can in advance. For babies, toddlers and very young children, it is up to you if you think they can participate in a visitation, funeral, celebration of life, or gathering.

In fact, we wish there were more of them. When you come to us with specific questions or requests, we end up with a more unique and personalized experience for those attending the funeral. If you would like us to contact you to answer any of your questions, let us know if you prefer communication by phone or email: http://204557.celebrate-life.us/reach-out/

3 Truths About Grief:
1) Grief is personal.
You will never find two with the same grief journey, so don't compare yours to others.
2) Grief is not a linear journey.
Some days you may feel okay, other days fearful, and other days 5 feelings at once. Try to handle emotions with patience.
3) Grief is natural.
You may feel like you are losing your mind but in fact grief is a natural reaction to loss. Not only does it affect you mentally but it comes with physical symptoms as well. Practice self-care!
