GriefShare is a weekly seminar and support group for people grieving the death of a loved one. It’s a place where you can be around others who understand how you feel and the pain of your loss. You’ll learn valuable information that will help you through this difficult time in your life. As one person who has participated in GriefShare explained: “Going to GriefShare feels like having warm arms wrapped around you when you’re shivering.”
