Koch Funeral Home

04/24/2026

Koch Funeral Home has partnered with Centre Region Parks & Recreation.

A Walk with Grief is not an exercise program but instead a time of coming together with others who are grieving a loss and…walking. Walking to connect with the healing aspects of nature. And walking to know you're not alone. You can speak and share with others, or you can move about in silence. The important thing is to show-up. Sessions will be held at different parks in our community. There will be one final session and participants will receive park information once registration is complete.

Jackie Naginey Hook will be the instructor. If you have questions, please email Jackie@JackieHook.com or call (814) 237-2712. Please register at Centre Region Parks & Recreation website ↓.

Koch Funeral Home has partnered with YMCA of Centre County.

When we lose a loved one, having support helps us on our healing journeys. It is powerful to realize you are not alone and to learn how others make it through. In this grief education and support group series, we’ll discuss grief and mourning, have opportunities to share our own stories, and be among others who have experienced a loss. Adults of all ages are welcome – intergenerational support is a powerful healer too.

Facilitators are Jackie Naginey Hook and Brenda Oyler Kim. To RSVP, email Jackie Naginey Hook at Jackie@JackieHook.com or call 814-237-2712.

When: Every 2nd and 4th Tuesdays, April 14, and April 28, 2026
Time: 4:30pm - 6:00pm
Where: YMCA of Centre County, State College Branch, 677 W. Whitehall
Road, State College
