It is just as important to grow your community support system during this difficult time. These events help you do both. We encourage anyone that is dealing with grief to join us and learn more about the services offered by The Tristesse Grief Center," stated Susan Bramsch, Executive Director. "We strive every day to support those that journey towards improved health and renewed sense of worth in the wake of loss."
