Acknowledging Someone Who is Grieving at Random Times-The Best Gift
Acknowledging someone who is grieving at random times creates a sense of love and understanding that far surpasses any tangible gift.

"... loss does not have to be a subject that is overlooked, silenced for fear of upsetting someone, or just thought about and not talked about. We need others to lift us up when things are hard.
