Community Support & Grief Resources for Chapel Hill Families

Compassionate Care, Guidance, and Local Support for Families in Chapel Hill

Funeral & Grief Support Services

In addition to the traditional funeral services we offer, including funerals, burials, cremation, and more, we also offer much-needed grief support. We are honored to provide ongoing grief support to families across Missouri. We don’t want to be a temporary resource, only offering our services until the conclusion of a funeral. That is why we support CHERISH, a nonprofit grief support group that brings comfort and healing to individuals and families facing a loss. If you would like to join our efforts to provide grief support to communities large and small, contact us to learn more about what we offer to families and funeral businesses in Missouri.

CHERISH is a necessary grief support resource for St. Louis area individuals & families

Grief Support Together

At CHERISH, we believe no one should be left to bear the weight of grief alone. We are here to provide grief support services to anyone who needs them. By offering these resources in our communities, we build a powerful network of support that ties families together.

We Remember Today, Tomorrow, Forever.

Community

Those who experience grief often require a community beyond their own to support them through this journey. Through CHERISH, your community may grow to include licensed therapists, support groups, and events.

Help

No one should face grief alone. You need help to navigate this process, and we are here to provide the resources individuals and families need after a loss.

Educating

Everyone experiences grief – from hearing the news that a loved one has passed, through all the remembrance events, and then along our unique path to healing. Everyone should feel their emotions and perspective are validated and accepted.

Remembering

We recognize that the grieving person may feel isolated, perceiving that others want them to move on. At CHERISH events, we remember for years and generations to come. Grieving families celebrate their loved one’s life, holding them in their hearts forever.

Inspiring

At Chapel Hill Mortuary, we embrace our larger role of helping create a healthy community. Our community events have brought families together and helped our neighbors in need. We are inspired by hardworking community members and businesses, and are blessed to have the opportunity to help others. Together, there is nothing we cannot do.

Sharing

Losing a loved one may feel like the end, like you cannot survive, but you are not alone. Our grief experiences are unique, but we are connected by our journey toward healing and we need support. At CHERISH, we offer a wide range of free grief services and support groups that can lighten your load.

Healing

You will never be the same after the loss of a loved one. CHERISH can help your grief journey be a healthy one for you and those you love. You cannot escape your grief, and medications will only postpone the pain. You must share grief. Your pain will not disappear, but support from others can help ease your heartache and keep you healthy as you make your new way. You are not alone.
