When you say their name you are
not reminding them that they died…
you are letting them know you
remember that they lived.
One of the greatest heartaches I hear from my clients is their fear that their loved one will be forgotten. When you ask about someone who has died by name, you are honoring the life they lived.
You won’t be reminding them that their loved one died. By saying or asking their name, you create an opportunity for the griever to talk about their loved one, share stories and cherished memories.
Say their name.
