STRAIGHT TALK ABOUT

DEATH Too often, parents speak in euphemistic terms about death with their children, choosing to say things such as “Grandpa went away” or “Grandma went to sleep.” These vague explanations, however, are not adequate for children who want to know either about coffins and dirt or the spiritual aspects of death. In both cases, parents owe it to their children to be honest. Otherwise, if their questions go unanswered, children are likely to be forced to carry their questions with them and deal with them later. By getting direct and honest answers to their questions, children have the chance for resolution that will provide them with the peace of, mind they'll need to deal with life's most vexing question.

Children tend to do much better than their parents think they can with information about the death of a loved one. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton, we have lots of experience supporting families in caring for their loved ones around the issues that arise after a loss. For a tour, call 3473431. Bright View Cemetery, just outside Warrenton, offers monuments and memorials for all cemeteries.

"I care not; a man can die but once; we owe God a death."

William Shakespeare
