Grief can shake us to our very core. Yet, it is an experience common to all
of humanity. Remembering together can be a significant part of finding our
way along the grief journey and fostering continuing bonds with our loved ones.
Each year, Adoray sponsors events to honor the lives of those who have been
important to you and support you through your grief journey. Remembering is
made up of so much — happy times, sad times, lessons taught, lessons learned,
the things we are grateful for as well as the things we could have done without.
All of these things are part of keeping memories real and alive in our hearts
and minds. Join us at one of our upcoming events.
Grief Book Clubs & Support Groups
Adoray invites you to join our upcoming Grief Book Clubs.
All are welcome. The goal is to have the book completed before the meeting. However, those who are not able to finish the book can still find value in the discussion and are encouraged to attend. These events are FREE and open to the public, thanks to our generous donors.
