“The Grief Quest workbook is GREAT…a real gem for those who are tryingto navigate the path through grief.”— Darcie D. Sims, Ph.D., CHT, CT, GMSDirector, American Grief Academy“Grief Quest is a well thought out journey for the bereaved who liketo ponder and record their thoughts. Others may just want to dip inand out of the wonderful stories and ponder the soul-searchingquestions. Bereavement counselors and group facilitators could use therich questions to stimulate discussion. Grief Quest’s L.O.V.E. processcan be very helpful to anyone who’s lost a loved one.”— Dr. Gloria Horsley, Grief Expert,President of The Open To Hope Foundation"I just finished reading Grief Quest. It is a wonderful workbook bythe bereaved for the bereaved.In those very early years of the grief journey it is achallenge for young grievers to get through reading even a paragraphof text and remember what they just read. The intense grief overloadsthe frontal cortex of the brain and we have serious short term memoryloss (CRS). This is why a workbook such as this is so valuable. Itprovides deep healing messages, quotes, stories, and questions/suggestions in a short and concise but meaningful way.It provides a provocative road map and diary for thegrieving soul; it does not pathologise, preach or instruct; it is aguided meditation in book form for the grieving heart. I would highlyrecommend this literal self help workbook for anyone on the griefjourney."— Mitch Carmodyauthor of ”Letters to My son, Turning Loss to Legacy”“I loved Grief Quest. What I particularly liked was the emphasis onpositive emotions and experiences while also giving opportunity forthe expression of pain and despair.

Your book has tremendouspotential for helping them through their grief. Well done!”— Marcia F.
