The true cost of losing someone to dementia starts before family members say their final goodbyes – it is watching the agonising demise of the person they love right in front of them.
Anticipatory grief can feel just as intense as the grief felt after a death, and often leave relatives and friends struggling to come to terms with sudden, significant changes in the person who has dementia.
“When a family member or close friend has dementia, you may experience loss even before they have died,” leading charity Dementia UK says.
Death notices and funeral announcements in the Grimsby Telegraph and Scunthorpe Telegraph
We have sadly lost several well-loved people over the last few weeks
06:00, 23 MAY 2021
Every week, the Grimsby and Scunthorpe Telegraphs publishes funeral notices of people that have tragically been lost.
The announcements are a time-honoured tradition for family to inform friends, acquaintances and current and former work colleagues of the sad news and funeral arrangements.
The funeral notices also provide guidance about services, fundraising and often include tributes to health staff and carers.
We understand it is not easy for everyone to get hold of a paper in the current circumstances, so we have compiled a list of some recent announcements which have appeared in the Grimsby Telegraph.
