“Everyone grieves in different ways. For some, it could take longer or shorter. I do know it never disappears. An ember still smolders inside me. Most days, I don’t notice it, but, out of the blue, it’ll flare to life.”

— Maria V. Snyder, “Storm Glass”

Eid can be a difficult time for many as it can trigger memories of family members who are no longer with us.

The number of calls we receive are increasing and we would love to hear from enthusiastic and compassionate people to join our team of volunteers. Apply today and help us continue being a lifeline for those struggling with their grief. buff.ly/3J5NVTW
