“I want to thank you so much for your program. It is so comforting to know that we survivors are not forgotten.  I looked forward to each Wednesday afternoon; meeting the others and learning tips for our new path we must take.  I just wanted to let you know you are really making a difference in peoples lives. How much easier dealing with Hiers-Baxley made things for me.” -Ann Niehaus, The Villages, FL

Life Steps...stepping forward...remembering always ®

Experiencing the loss of a loved one brings change into our lives on multiple levels.  When we lose someone we love, we often become responsible for things we once were not - finances, home maintenance, and even everyday tasks such as cooking.

It is with these changes in mind that Hiers-Baxley Funeral Services has created the "Life Steps" Grief Support Workshops.

These unique 4-week and 5-week workshops afford the surviving spouse, companion, parent, child, sibling or friend of someone who has passed on the opportunity to come together with others, who have experienced a loss, in a small group setting.  Together, the group garners information and practical tips on the many necessary steps they must make as the result of loss.  Together with area experts, we cover topics such as emotional well-being, financial decision-making, travelling again, home safety, and yes. . . even tips on cooking for one.  Seating is limited, however, if you or someone you know would be interested in the complimentary Life Steps Workshops, please call Beverly Brown, our Director of Community Care at 352-671-6466, or email at beverly.brown@hiers-baxley.net.  The Life Steps Workshops are available in Ocala, The Villages and Chiefland.
