Death, Grief, and Comfort

Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Centre County 780 Waupelani Drive, State College, PA, United States

Our companions in life are death and grief and yet they are so difficult to talk about, and rarely at that. In times of loss, how do we find healthy comfort? Further, is emotional comfort something human beings should even expect as part of life? In the death workshop we will go over practical matters, memorial services, and think about our own deaths.
