Grief Support Group
Leavitt's Mortuary and Jan Medina, SSW have joined together to
provide a Complimentary adult Grief Support Group for those whom
have lost loved ones.
Grieving the loss of a loved one is said to be "the hardest work
you will ever do." This support group offers an open environment in
which individuals can share thoughts and feelings as well as
recognize they are not alone.
Join us to understand how you and your loved ones may receive
the support, understanding, and healing needed to move forward in a
positive direction.
The Grief Support Group meets every other Wednesday.
Facilitator, Jan Medina, is a nationally certified bereavement
facilitator from the American Academy of Bereavement.
