Annie - this is so thoughtful and so helpful. I'm forwarding it to a number of friends. Many times I've sought out readings, poems, books to support myself and others during times of loss. This is so full of understanding and wisdom. Thank you.

Thanks, Annie -- I'll be holding on to this. I've reached that age when, if I see a good sympathy card, I buy several, knowing they'll have a use soon enough. Your article will help me write inside those cards. It was lovely to see mention of Anita Skeen, my MFA thesis advisor.
