A Time to Remember
About this Event
A Time to Remember
Hosted by Bear Creek Funeral Home
The holiday season can be especially difficult when you’ve lost someone you love—whether recently or many years ago. A Time to Remember is an evening of reflection, comfort, and hope for all who wish to honour a loved one’s memory.
Enjoy special music from Mark Brazier, and hear guest speaker Paula Friesen. Paula will be sharing her own experiences with grief and how it can overwhelm our lives in the early days after loss, during the holidays and special occasions, and throughout life. She is a long-time supporter of the Good Grief Community and the author of Not Who They Thought: A Story of Heartbreak, Resilience and Love. Not Who They Thought is a deeply personal account born from profound love for her late daughter, Terri. Her book gives a voice to those who feel they do not have one. In it, she honours Terri's life and legacy while calling for greater compassion, dignity, and humanity in healthcare and beyond. We look forward to Paula’s second book, in which she reflects on the losses she’s experienced and what she has learned about living with grief.
Refreshments will be served, and personalized gifts will be prepared for those who pre-register. Come share an evening of peace, remembrance, and encouragement as we head into the holidays together.
