Where were you when I needed you?
The saddest question we ever hear is, "Where were you when I needed you?"
That's what people ask when they find out what we do in helping grievers. We're presenting helpful and accurate information on this site, at the time you need it most, with the hope that you'll never need to ask that question.
It's an honor and a sad privilege to be addressing you, knowing that each of you has recently experienced the death of someone important to you. We also know some of you are reading this because of your care and concern for someone who is confronted by the death of someone important in their life.
We bring our personal experience in dealing with the deaths of people who were important to us, and our professional know-how in helping grievers for more than 30 years. We'll help you distinguish between the "raw grief" that is your normal and natural reaction to the death, and the equally normal "unresolved grief" that relates to the unfinished emotions that are part of the physical ending of all relationships.
A basic reality for most grieving people is difficulty concentrating or focusing. With that in mind, we asked Tributes.com to print our articles in a large type font to make them easier to read. Sharing our concern for grieving people, they agreed.
From our hearts to yours,
John

Grief: A Normal & Natural Reaction to Loss
Grieving people often feel lost and alone, as if no one cares or wants to listen to them. Most people don't know recovery from significant emotional loss is even possible.
In this helpful and hopeful webinar with Russell Friedman, Tributes.com Grief Expert and Executive Director of the Grief Recovery Institute answers these and many more questions:
- Is it okay to feel sad when your heart is broken?
- Can time heal a broken heart?
- Is it better to be strong or to be human?
- Is keeping busy helpful?
- I've always heard "Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone." Should I avoid being around people when I'm sad?
What you learn may surprise you. It will open your mind and your heart to the possibility of recovery and give you hope. Click below to watch.
