Grief/Living Support Groups : The reason I started this website is that in 2006 I lost someone dear to me. I did not know where to go for support and what activities were available in the area. I started to put together a list for myself of support groups and Links to activities, parks and programs. I hope other people will benefit from this website.
I have benefited from these activities and I am now again married to a very special woman.
