A Few Fun Facts
I once went parachuting in my younger days. That’s right! I willingly threw my self out of a plane! It was an amazing experience! Oddly enough, I have never felt the urge to do it a second time! Perhaps it’s the jumping out of a plane part!
I am terrified of mice. The stand on a chair, frozen with fear kind of phobia!
I absolutely LOVE fried chicken! It is one of the only foods (besides potato chips) that I will literally crave.
I love Christmas and Christmas music. I decorate like I’m on a mission to create the North Pole.
I hate turnips! I truly believe that God made a mistake on this one. Really what was he thinking? That we would enjoy something that tastes and smells like dirty socks? (you may be wondering how I could know what dirty socks taste like)
I am a definite pet person. We have two dogs who might be spoiled terribly. All I know is that neither my husband or I are in charge around our house!
Who I Am
I'm Leanne, a retired teacher and mother of two sons and grandmother of two granddaughters. I love the outdoors and spend as much time as possible on the lake, or in the woods. I am also a mother who has experienced the devastating loss of one of my sons. I am on a journey of healing with the Lord’s help and it's my hope to help others on the same path by sharing my experiences.
I have a certificate in Death, Dying and Bereavement through Wilfrid Laurier University. I continue to work in grief ministry in order to share God’s love and comfort with those who are grieving and to keep conversations about loss alive.
This website is here to provide you with free resources for navigating grief. As you explore the website, I hope you find those that are helpful to you.
You will also find a link to a memory page, where you can leave a memory of your loved one to share with others. It is a way to honour them and keep their memories alive.
