 Grief Recovery Friends 

There are times when we need help
from a friend who will listen

We care. We understand.
We're here to listen


How Grief Recovery Friends
can help you
  • A place to listen and talk with others experiencing similar feelings.
  • A time to receive support of caring people who understand your loss.
  • An opportunity to discover that your journey through grief is also a journey which brings healing.

We are a support group which offers new strength and comfort to those who have experienced the death of a loved one.

We are people who understand the feeling which grief brings: feelings of sadness, anger and confusion.
