Covering the deaths from Oct 4-10, 2026

 
Good morning and welcome to Music & Memories. 
 
This is Linda Sue, and I am the grief specialist at Patton-Schad Funeral Home. It is my pleasure to bring you this week’s program. This program is our way of reaching out to help families deal with those difficult days surrounding the death anniversary of a loved one. 
 
October has kind of snuck up on us, which means flea markets and farmers markets will be coming to an end and it's really final until next spring. This does create a sadness, but yet a reality. As with the change of seasons so does our grief pain change with time. It's important to always give yourself credit for the courage to move forward after the loss of a loved one. It is no surprise how our life gets turned upside down with their loss, but courage is needed to move ahead creating a new normal. To express our feelings out loud is a healthy way to mourn. You must express your grief pain if you are to heal. It's been proven that if we can "allow ourselves to mourn well, we can then go on to live well and love well"; and that's a quote from Alan Wolfelt. Continue to celebrate your loved ones Heaven day with the stories and the memories.
