As we approach a new year, many are holding memories, milestones, and deep loss. It’s okay if this evening feels different from celebrations around you. May you find a pace that feels right, space for reflection, and hope that unfolds gently in the months ahead.

The death of a pet can bring deep feelings of loss and sadness. Many people grieve quietly, without the understanding or support of family, friends or community. Sometimes, others may not recognize the death of a pet as a significant loss, leaving those who are grieving to feel isolated or dismissed.

This group offers a safe and caring space to share your story, express your feelings, and connect with others who understand the unique bond between people and their animals. Together, we honour the love and companionship our pets brought into our lives.

Facilitated by Karlee Gross, the group for adults 18+ will meet Tuesday evenings once weekly for four consecutive weeks, starting January 13, 2026, from 6–8:00 p.m.

Pre-registration is required. For more information or to join our Pet Death Grief Support Group, please contact Karlee Gross, BA (Hons.), Child and Youth Program Manager, at (604) 795-4660 or email karlee@chilliwackhospice.org.

For those observing while grieving, this time of reflection and renewal may feel different. As the principles of unity, purpose, and collective care are honoured, there is space to hold both memory and loss. However you mark this season, may connection, meaning, and community offer strength and gentle support.

For those grieving at Christmas, this season may feel tender, complicated, or altogether different. Traditions can carry joy and sorrow at the same time. However you spend these days, may small moments of warmth, rest, and memories bring gentle comfort.
