Click here for a world of resources. Books, podcasts, videos, articles, websites - curated by us for you. You could learn about how to support someone who grieves, how to engage children in conversation about death and dying, find the most touching memoir, or podcast that warms your heart. Nothing but the best.

Calls are frequent in the early weeks and space out more as the year progresses, but if you would like more, or less, we tailor them just for you. Calls are made at 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 weeks, plus on the birthday, and anniversary of death. We will listen for how things have been, see if we can point you to any helpful resources, and provide grief education and coping strategies.

The holidays can be tender. Mid-December we gather in a beautiful space for live music, readings from poets and spiritual writers, lighting of candles, and reading of names.

In June we gather at our Pillars Hospice Home for an open house. Our spiritual team will help you plant Monarch butterfly habitat and say words of remembrance for your loved one. Root beer floats, friendly faces, grief support resources, child friendly - it’s a lovely time for ritual and companionship.

From time to time we will send you something in the mail, such as an invitation to an event or some grief resources around the holidays or an anniversary. We will never share your information with others.

Grief can be surprising. Some new feeling come up? Blindsided by a memory? Wondering about a referral for more in-depth counseling services? Want help engaging children in their grief? Please call us, we love to help.

Thirteen months of bereavement care is included in the medicare hospice benefit. Our Director of Bereavement Services is LeeAnne Watkins, please don’t hesitate to reach out to her with any questions or suggestions. We are always learning and adapting, doing our best to care for you.
