I am taking this (training binder) into the Library okay just to let them know that I went to a grieving training so I can show them how other people feel and be a great friend.

S.G

But I want to say, thank you for teaching us this course, and it means a lot. I really love this program. This worked out really good, and I appreciate this grieving thing. I say we retain you keep on (giving) this grieving training.

P.B

You forget you’ve got that big rock in your pocket because you’ve just grown strong enough to carry it. The rock is still there, right?

You told me when I first started with you and you told me about the big heavy rock in my pocket. I remember that to myself. Now it just gets lighter and lighter every day.
