A Time To Mourn: Coping with Friend Loss in Challenging Times

Opportunities to express the grief experienced after the loss of dear friends were limited this past year, as many funerals and other rituals of mourning were limited to close family. Yet losing friends can be one of the most emotionally challenging aspects of aging. In this professionally facilitated session, we will discuss the often under-recognized impact of friend loss, support one another, and memorialize those we have lost.
