Many of you know that 'How are you?' can be a very loaded question when you're grieving the death of someone you care about. During these unprecedented times, finding helpful alternatives to that tricky question were just what we needed. Thanks Keeley Shaw Art for these!

BFOYR would like to think Richmond Hill Bingo World and Gaming for its continued support of BFOYR. Bingo World and Gaming is currently open with reduced capacity. They are also running weekly online bingo every Saturday.

In honour of #BlackHistoryMonth we would like to recognize that one's intersectional identity can impact how they experience bereavement. By understanding this, we can better support everyone. To learn more on the unique experience of black grief we recommend this book.

Today is #NationalBereavementDay in Canada. At some point, we all will experience loss & bereavement yet our society remains so death avoidant. Today offer support to a bereaved friend and/or share a memory of your loved one who died. #Grief shared is grief lessened. #support
