Living With Loss

Dorshei Emet Member Howard Richler lost his wife Ruth in a tragic hiking accident almost twenty years. Some years ago he formed the Living With Loss bereavement group where people who are grieving can share their experiences with fellow mourners.

A group for those in mourning will commence once again at the shul towards the end of February. This group is open to all faith communities and will consist of 6-8 sessions of approximately 90 minutes. Howard Richler, who is leading the group, said that dealing with the loss of a loved one in a group setting was helpful to him after the loss of his wife, Ruth, 18 years ago.
