Keeping vigil, reflecting on the gap between a rich life and a plain death, and wondering how faith, science, and ritual help us hold loss without letting it define us. The dead may be invisible, but we explore how their presence can still affect us.

• why stories of death need telling and retelling
• readings on the nearness of the dead and what comfort means
• the vigil: hospice, timelines, and private moments of farewell
• different grief responses within a family
• finding a language for dying after hospice work
• humor and ritual as meaning‑making
• how faith and non‑faith coexist in grief care
• integrating memory as an ongoing practice

If you have questions about spiritual direction while grieving, or grief support or grief groups in your community, my contact information is in the show notes.
