This unique program provides a comprehensive level of personalized after-care incomparable in the area.
A funeral or memorial service is often the first step in the grief and bereavement journey. Although each of us may grieve in our own way, the process of grieving is an essential part of life going forward.
We recognize that once the service has ended and family and friends have returned to their routines, what once was "normal" may no longer seem to be.
Sorrow and grief can take the place of other emotions, and new routines are anything but "normal".
Although death may have taken the life of a loved one, we understand that it has not taken away the relationship which existed; rather, that relationship has changed and continues in a new way. As we search for the new "normal" in our life, we strive to achieve new perspectives.
Each of us grieves in our own way and in our own time.
At Dyer-Lake, we provide an exceptional array of programs, services, resources and information, all of which remain available for as long as they are needed.
Beginning with the care and compassion of our experienced funeral directors and staff, and including the guidance and support of our licensed social worker, Meghan Cavanaugh, MSW, LICSW, Dyer-Lake is here to meet the needs of those we serve, as well as others in our extended community, all at no charge.
In addition to offering personal support and information, we also hold memorial programs such as our touching Holiday Tree Lighting and Memorial Ornament program and an inspirational Butterfly Release.
We are proud to also offer numerous community education events throughout the year.
