Maybe you know someone who is grieving. Maybe you love someone who is grieving and you’re unsure what to say or do.

Grief has been our teacher, and we’ve learned that there are no perfect words.

As the years go on, simply ask us how we are. Talk about our person. Say their name. Ask how we’re really doing—and then sit and listen. We may be grateful for the opportunity to talk about our person, and we may even thank you for asking. Sometimes, that simple connection is all that’s needed.

You don’t need to have an answer. Sometimes there is no answer for pain this deep. Simply remembering, listening, and being there means more than you know.

Thank you, Cathe Laurie, for this important message. 🤍

Good morning, Friends of Phillip. 💙

One of the many blessings that has come from sharing Phillip’s story and walking this journey of tragedy and of remembrance has been meeting so many incredible families along the way. We have had the privilege of getting to know parents who carry the same deep love for their children that we carry for Phillip, and it means so much to support one another as we continue to honor their lives.

This fall, several families who attend our group, along with dear friends we have met along the way, are hosting truly special events in memory of their beloved children.

Each event has been created with so much love—honoring precious lives, keeping their memories alive, raising awareness, and meeting the needs of others in meaningful ways.

We hope you’ll take a moment to learn about these upcoming events and, if you are able, come out and support these wonderful families as they honor and remember their children. 💙

There is something incredibly special about seeing love continue to grow through remembrance, community, and kindness.

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.” — Philippians 2:3 🙏

Our hearts are full of gratitude for Kadyn Perez and her amazing donation! 🤍

After falling in love with crocheting 🧶 , Kadyn created Dear Ducky in memory of her brother Atley. It’s named after his favorite stuffed animal that she gave him. 🐥💙

Having attended our peer support group for years, Kadyn wanted to give back and help support other siblings the way LLP has supported her.

Dear Ducky is the cutest! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Kadyn, for your generosity and for honoring Atley in such a beautiful way. 🤍

Finding Hope through Jesus 🙏🫶✝️thank you Grieving Moms Finding Hope for the reminders of his love for us!

“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body." 2 Corinthians 4:8-10

September is su***de awareness month. It’s ok to not be ok! Abbey's Bakery
Abbey's Bakery thank you for all you do in memory and honor of your beloved Abbey 💜

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month and we want to create something that honors Abbey. We are hoping you will help us.

Abbey always went out of her way to make people feel included and we are asking that you share with us either what you do to make others feel seen and valued and/or what makes you feel seen and valued.

It can the most simple thing like holding a door for someone or a big thing like asking someone how they are and actually listening to how they answer.

So SPAM US!!!! Leave us a comment or send us a message.

Today is National Grief Awareness Day.

But for those of us who grieve, awareness has never been the problem.

We are aware when we wake up and remember.
When something funny happens and we still think to tell them.
When a song comes on.
When a birthday arrives.
When everyone else seems to have moved on to the next thing.

What we need is for the world around us to understand that grief doesn’t have an expiration date.

That saying their name doesn’t remind us they died. We already know.

That laughter doesn’t mean we’re “over it.”

That years can pass and love can still ache.

So maybe today isn’t about making grieving people more aware of grief.

Maybe it’s about helping everyone else understand how to live beside someone who carries it.

💜
