The GriefCare Place opened its doors in June of 1997. It offers a SAFE PLACE where those grieving the death of a loved one can find support, education, understanding, and a caring place to heal. The center serves individuals of all ages, offers a home-like atmosphere and is a non-denominational faith based organization where those of strong faith or those of none can come comfortably.
The GriefCare Place educates participants about grief and provides caring volunteers who walk alongside and companion them during the grieving/healing process.
The GriefCare Place charges no fees and is funded entirely by fundraising events, donations, and memorial gifts. Since it is a charitable, non-profit organization, all donations are tax deductible under IRS section 501(c)(3). Financial support is a continuous need, greatly appreciated, and is responsibly spent.
We can't hug them or
see them with our eyes.
BUT we can still feel
them in our hearts!
That brings me comfort.
I hope it does for you, too...
When we love someone,
they become an indelible
force in our lives,
even after they are gone.
We recall how they dealt
with hard situations when
we are faced with the same things.
We think of them for no
reason at all:
What would they say right now?
We always wonder: are they
watching over us?
Do they know how much
we miss them?
Even though we'll never see
loved ones who've passed
on walk thru the front door
again,
I hope you can find peace with the knowledge that
you'll always have a part of
them in you.
When we love someone, their
spirit lives forever in our hearts!

Hold on...when you hear that song that reminds you of your loved one
Hold on...when you find yourself thinking "I wish they were here for this moment so badly it hurts"
Hold on...during those quiet in-between moments when you feel your loved one's absence most acutely
Hold on because you're going to make it
Hold on because you're not the only one
Hold on because there's hope that next year will be better
You may shed tears but remember that your grief is an expression of love and such an expression is never wrong...
This may be a hard day BUT you have survived hard days!
You will survive this one!!
HOLD ON!
