The Langley Hospice Society is committed to providing emotional, practical and spiritual support for people who are living with a terminal illness, their family and friends, throughout the last stages of illness, at the time of death and bereavement.
MEMORIAL WALL
Langley Hospice Society is pleased to present the Celebrate a Life memorial wall, a place where those we love are remembered.
This section is made up of writings from people who have experienced the loss through death of someone they love. In their grief journey, it has helped them to share the story of their loss. Some of the pages end with a way for you to connect directly with them.

Shawn Siak is a Langley Hospice Volunteer who is participating in our upcoming Langley Hospice Society Fort Langley Historic 5K, 10K, Half on Saturday, February 17th, 2019 in support of the Langley Hospice Society. Last year was her first run ever and here she talks about why she's running again this year:
“I am participating in the Langley Hospice Society Fort Langley Historic 5k, 10k and Half Marathon for the second time this year and helping to raise important funds for their delivery of palliative and bereavement care and support for our community. I realize how much support they provide for the entire family, whether it’s in the hospice residence, at home or in the community, or through the grief support programs and services they offer free of charge through their Supportive Program Centre in Langley."
"Through my own experience of caring for my mother at the end of life, I know how important support can be. Individuals and families often take on unfamiliar roles and responsibilities when caring for a loved one that can bring challenges, and it’s important that they know organizations like the Langley Hospice Society are here to help.”

This is a great piece by Kelly Lynn from TEDxAdelphiUniversity...who talks about changing our language - it's not about "moving on"... "we move through", or "move with" people in our lives who are grieving...
