When Jim Tate’s wife of 40 years passed away in March 2018, two of his daughters wasted no time in finding a resource to help their dad manage his grief.
Two days after Vicky Tate died of frontotemporal dementia and ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, Laura and Diana Tate had placed Jim Tate in GriefShare in Ramona.
“I think I learned a lot of things about grief and how to manage it,” said Tate, who has seven children and eight grandchildren. “It did help to talk to others having the same experiences.”
