Bereavement Services

Bereavement support is an important service offered through Van Dyke Hospice and Palliative Care Center. Long after the casseroles stop coming and out of town family have returned home, Van Dyke Hospice is there for 13 months offering support through telephone calls, home visits and written correspondence. We are there for the family with group support for newly bereaved widows and widowers at meetings held conveniently at our Hooper Avenue office, with ample parking and easy access to the meeting room. This is a place where feelings are shared, comfort abounds and new friendships are formed.

We also offer referral to bereavement supports groups for other types of losses. One to one bereavement services with our highly skilled and compassionate bereavement staff members are also available.

Memorial Service

Van Dyke Hospice and Palliative Care Center offers our Memorial Service twice a year to honor the memory of loved ones. Our Memorial Service includes candle lighting by family and friends, music, readings, post service gathering which includes light refreshments and a display of our memorial quilts. Invitations are sent to the friends and families who have been part of the Van Dyke Hospice program, but are open to anyone who would like to attend.
