Grief Support
Grief Support
Here for you after the funeral.
When a loved one passes away, grief can be overwhelming. Friends and family need time to heal, and grieving is a normal part of that process.
Need to Talk?
— We know sometimes the hardest part is taking the time to reach out for support. Call today 636-940-1000.
Because grief does not end with the funeral, neither does our service to you. We will continue to provide any assistance and support that you need for as long as you need it. Our Grief Support Services Program is one of the most comprehensive programs in the Midwest, and the support groups and resource services are available to our community at no charge.
Through our community partners, including The Center for Hope & Healing, we provide grief counseling services and ongoing classes on a variety of topics to help families. Every family served by Baue is entitled to a complimentary grief counseling session, and able to attend any of our grief support groups free of charge. Whether it is a small or large group you will find people you can identify with and share experiences, under the leadership of professionals committed to making a difference in people’s lives. We can also help if you are dealing with other painful or difficult life experiences, including divorce, disability, medical challenges, or mental health difficulties.
