EXPANDING THE GRIEF LIBRARY
With pride and pleasure, D. O. McComb & Sons continues to grow the Mildred M. McComb Library. Located in the Arrangement Center at the Lakeside Park Funeral Home, 1140 Lake Avenue, Fort Wayne, this library contains books, tapes, and videos covering all aspects of grief and loss, death and dying.
“Families, friends, caregivers, hospice professionals, counselors, clergy, and funeral directors, will find a wealth of resource material regarding all phases of grief,” states co-owner Dave McComb. “You will find comforting books for grieving adults, siblings, teens, children and friends plus lovely volumes to soothe the terminally ill and dying”.
The shelves also include books regarding suicide, homicide, AIDS, and other tragic deaths, along with books planning new and meaningful funeral services and liturgies.
A full complement of Dr. Alan D. Wolfelt’s books and videos are available. Dr. Wolfelt has presented grief workshops for D.O. McComb & Sons in Fort Wayne for 24 years. The library also houses an interesting section of books featuring historical and philosophical observations on death, dying and funerals.
Books may be borrowed for a two-week period and renewed, if desired. As a courtesy, coffee, tea, and soft drinks are offered, along with a quiet room to sit and read. Library hours are Monday, Friday, and Saturday from 9am- 5pm.
