Say their name.
One of the most common things we hear from grieving families is this: ‘Please don’t be afraid to say their name.’ It may bring tears — but it also brings their loved one back into the room, if only for a moment.
Their worst fear is that their loved one will be forgotten. Don't be afraid to say their name.
