COMFORTING
THE GRIEVING Many people do not know what to say or how to act when paying their respects to grieving friends. They seek to avoid phrases like "I know how you must feel" and "1 am sure that things will get better" because they do not necessarily accurately portray the situation. Instead, well-meaning friends may want to take heed of the words of Tryon Edwards, "Quiet and sincere sympathy is often the most welcome and efficient consolation to the afflicted. Said a wise man to one in deep sorrow, 'I did not come to comfort you; God only can do that; but I did come to say how deeply and tenderly I feel for you in your affliction'". Just showing up to say you care is often all that your friend or family member needs. Finding the "right" words is impossible, since there are no words to remove a loss, but showing one's love by being there is always helpful. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, we get to know you and your family so we can meet your particular needs and respond to your requests in honoring your loved one. We are here 24 hours a day at 347-3431 (233 Broadview Avenue, Warrenton). We offer plots in Bright View Cemetery, just outside Warrenton, and memorials and monuments for all cemeteries.
"Sorrow is so easy to express and yet so hard to tell."
- Joni Mitchell
