Hospice of Northeast Missouri to offer grief of aging support group on Wednesday in Canton

CANTON, Mo. — Barb Smith, a Hospice of Northeast Missouri volunteer, will facilitate a grief of aging support group where participants will continue to explore dealing with getting older and experiencing the reality of “life is NOT what I thought it would be when I got to this point.”

This support group is free and will meet from 1 to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 25, and Wednesday, Nov. 29, at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 812 Lewis.

Many people have several plans for their later years but instead are dealing with physical issues that keep them from doing all the things they want to do.
