In 2008, my brother, Garrett, passed away in a car accident at age eighteen. Well-intentioned people filled my family’s mailbox with sympathy cards, many of which sucked. And then they stopped sending anything at all.

I created Grief Cards in order to help people reach out — without toxic positivity or assumed spirituality. Every grief experience is unique and nuanced, but the importance of ongoing, intentional connection is universal. And not only right after a loss, but in the weeks, months, and years to follow.

Grief Cards are sustainably-made and locally-printed in Kansas City, Missouri. Each one is intentionally crafted to help both sender and recipient feel less alone as they navigate their own experiences on their own timelines and in their own ways.

With love,
