Music & Memories Radio Script
Broadcast for Sunday January 1, 2023
Covering the deaths from January 1 – January 7
Good morning and welcome to Music & Memories.
This is Linda Sue and I am the grief specialist at Patton-Schad Funeral Home. It is my pleasure to bring you this week’s program on KASM. This program is our way of reaching out to help families deal with those difficult days surrounding the death anniversary of a loved one.
When you least expect it, there will be a morning when you wake up and forget about your loss. Try not to feel guilty, for it is a sign of progress. While it may not happen again for a long time, waking up without sadness will eventually be the norm.
This program is dedicated to the memory of:
