We have our bereavement coordinator, Lulu Orr. Lulu has an extensive background in helping people through life's hardest times. For the past 12 years Lulu, a registered nurse, worked with the terminally ill and their families both in their homes and in a hospice in - patient setting. As a hands-on caregiver and as an administrator Lulu worked intensely with dying issues and anticipatory grief. Through these experiences Lulu saw a real lack of service for the recently bereaved. This time is so difficult and with so many questions yet seemingly so few answers, that she has worked with us to develop this service for all the families that we serve. This will hopefully make this painfully difficult time a bit more manageable.

Lulu Orr is also the founder and executive director of the Good Grief center for bereavement support. Located at 2717 Murray Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15217, Phone: 412-224-4700, Fax: 412-224-4717. www.ggconline.org
