Hospice Bereavement Camps

for Children, Teens, and Adults

“Gail is a tremendous asset to our outdoor bereavement programs. As much as she uses her voice to tell the stories, she uses her heart to listen. Because we encourage our attendees to begin to tell their stories of loss, having Gail model storytelling paves the way for our clients to do the same.

She is sensitive to the needs of each program and assesses the group before telling an appropriate story. Gail offers stories with professionalism, compassion, and care.”
