Music & Memories 
Broadcast for Sunday Dec 8, 2024
Covering the deaths from Dec 8-14, 2024 
 
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. This program is our way of reaching out to help families deal with those difficult days surrounding the death anniversary of a loved one.  

Wow: By now winter has found us and Thanksgiving has become a memory. As our grief journey moves forward we are preparing our hearts and minds for the Christmas season. If your pain of grief is new, please know you don't have to follow the normal traditions. Holiday baking, decorating the tree, wrapping presents can be put off for now. Some find it comforting to continue with those traditions and others need to know it's ok if you skip a year. It's so important that you be you! It's exhausting to pretend and it's very ok to take a break. Do what you feel up to doing. It's enough sometimes just anticipating the upcoming celebrations, so stepping back' is ok and those who love you will understand.
