Aftercare

Holding a funeral or memorial service for your loved one is a positive first step in the grieving process. Family members and friends get a chance to say their goodbyes, and at the same time, they get to share strong feelings with one another.

In the days, weeks and months following the service, people continue to need others to lean on for understanding, encouragement and guidance. For that reason, many local and national support groups have formed. These groups provide a common place and a comforting environment for expressing emotions through each phase of the grieving process. 

Wilkirson-Hatch-Bailey also offers the Hand in Hand grief counseling service for all residents in Central Texas. The service is free of charge to anyone who may be experiencing any kind of grief.  To learn more, click on the links above, or discuss grief counseling and support options with your funeral director.
