Valuable tool for grieving.
The funeral is a vital tool in the process of grief, when done right, it vital to the healing of broken hearts. Lives are hurt by dynamic events that shatter the soul. They are healed by simple touches of small kindnesses. Make the service personal, about the departed, little stuff means a lot.
