For those who have lost loved ones, it can be a time of intense grief and loneliness. Registration starts at 8 a.m. Presenters will help people learn about the natural grief process and offer advice on how to survive the holidays. Last year the workshop drew about 75 people, mostly those experiencing a loss for the first time. Sponsored by Williams Funeral Service, Hospice Hawai ' i, St. Francis Hospice and Ordenstein's Hawaiian Memorial Park Mortuary, the daylong workshop will include a panel discussion with experts, art projects, and sessions on healing touch and massage.
Enrollment is limited.
