Our House Fund-Raising Event

Susan Whitmore, Our President, Attends An Our House Fund-Raiser In November 2004, I attended, along with a group of mothers, an Our House fund-raising event. Our House is an organization that provides grief therapy for parents and siblings. I have been attending group therapy sessions with these parents since Erika died. The evening was very rewarding and successful for Our House. It was our honor to be there. At one point during the evening, our table was asked to stand up and honor our children who had died. We received a gracious round of applause. I don’t know what I would do without these mothers in my life.

2013 griefHaven Annual Fundraising Luncheon

griefHaven Annual Fundraising Luncheon Luxe Hotel – Los Angeles, California October 8, 2013 2013 Friends of griefHaven “Live Your Best Life Luncheon.” It was truly beautiful, and that room was filled with so much love it was palpable. There were 180 people in attendance. The Friends of griefHaven Council members (meet them all on our website) worked for months and months to make this event flawless. Our former Mayor, Richard Riordan, introduced Susan in such a lovely way. Then several families stood up and shared how griefHaven has helped them on their journeys. Michael Davis sang a beautiful song he wrote entitled “I Will Friend You,” and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. But then…ta dah!!! Along came John Gray, best-selling author and sought-after speaker (ever heard of “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus?”) , and he spoke and had us all in stitches!
