The Seattle Tacoma Widows and Widowers Meetup
|
Meet with other local Widows, Widowers, and all those who have lost their significant others. This meetup will look for opportunities for social activities and informal meetups to get together. A lending library of books and resources is available. Each member is encouraged to add to the list and/or donate books to share. This is not counseling, but a way to share our stories and triumphs. ...FYI---This meetup will soon REPLACE the WA Widow(er)s~ BeS.C.E.N.E.(Single, Courageous, Empowered..) Meetup. There was too much confusion created by the name as well as the mailing list address accidentally set up as singleparents.

Our next meeting:
Widow(er) Meetup Coffee and Chat
Come join us for coffee and to chat.
Please bring a list of books (Title and Author) and any other resources that have helped you such as websites, support groups, etc.
I will bring paper and pens for everyone to write down those resources for personal use. I will also compile a list for subsequent meetups.
