The Samaritan Center for Grief Support, a member of the Samaritan Family of Services, announces its March support group schedule.
“Grief is a natural, healthy and universal emotion,” said Kim Runmaker, Manager of the Samaritan Center for Grief Support. “It helps us accept a loss and begin to heal. You don’t have to grieve alone.”
