Personal Mission:
To co-create a world, with greater loving kindness, through healing myself and serving others.
Action in the World:
For eighteen years, I have been advocating for the Dying and Bereaved. I began this direct volunteer work, as an opportunity to “put my grief” in a place.
That place was Abington Hospital. I have been honored to help create SAFE HARBOR, a grieving center for children and their families, and bear witness as these kids mourn the special people in their lives that have died. I blend a philosophy of adequacy, where “everything belongs”, striving to create a healing environment and sacred space that facilitates the mourner’s search for meaning in the transformative experience of death, grief and loss.
My volunteer work also extends to and includes: Home Hospice visits, Home Bereavement visits and the “In Hospital” Hospice Unit at Abington Hospital. I feel joy and gratitude for this acknowledgement, and to be honored with this award.
