What Can You Do When You Can’t Have a Funeral During a Pandemic? (PANDEMIC SPECIAL EPISODE)

Thank you to Buffy Peters of Hamilton's Academy of Grief and Loss, at Hamilton's Funeral Home in Des Moines, Iowa, for speaking with me for this pandemic special episode.

We originally planned to talk about children and funerals during the pandemic, but it ended up being a broader discussion that will be useful to anyone thinking about what you can do when you can't have a funeral during this pandemic.

This discussion was recorded April 16, 2020.
