We are all just walking each other home. - Ram Dass

The holidays bring many “firsts” after losing a loved one, stirring emotions and questions: Will my grief change in the new year? Can I find hope? Explore ways to honor your feelings, reflect, and move forward with care and compassion.

Have you lost a loved one? When someone we love dies, it can feel overwhelming. The truth is many are walking a similar path. Consider coming to a place where you can talk, grieve, and move forward with people who are also grieving. 

Sue Yerxa reflects on the peace and compassion her family experienced at Aroostook House of Comfort, honoring the place that provided comfort and dignity to her loved ones in their final days.

The holidays can be challenging for those grieving, but joining a group like Grief and the Holidays—Healthy Ways to Grieve Well During the Holidays can provide support. Setting boundaries, embracing new traditions, and connecting with others can help bring comfort and meaning to the season.

Join us for a free seminar, "Coping with Grief During the Holidays," for those facing the holiday season after losing a loved one. Led by George McLaughlin, Bereavement Coordinator for Northern Light Home Care & Hospice, the seminar will provide practical tips and support to help you navigate this challenging time.

Our community gathered at the Aroostook House of Comfort to honor Dr. David Jones, a beloved physician and hospice advocate. Friends, family, and colleagues shared heartfelt stories and a special memorial dedication, celebrating his profound impact and ensuring his compassionate spirit will continue to inspire.
