A Place for Men in Mourning

The death of a spouse or life partner is often fol lowed by a flurry of activity. You may be surrounded by loved ones — family and friends. They support you emotionally, spiritually and physically. They bring food over. They make the phone calls no one wants to get. A funeral, a memorial service . . . It would seem that you couldn’t do it without them. They are there for you in any way they can, and their loving support carries you through that initial grieving period. But then what? One day, you wake up and the flurry of activity has stopped.
