T -A photo JWe're glad you asked! With Iry Armstrong and Bob Fletcher of 0,eyie Kodey ,:nct HOW CAN DEATH BY EXPLAINED TO A CHILD? In the book Explaining Death To Children, the editor, Dr. Earl A. Grollmon states: "In explaining death to children, the parent may pro- ceed from two areas of concern... the interpretative where religious concepts ore explained... and the factual area." Religious concepts would include those that describe the qualities of God os understood in the religion pranced in your:family. These should be of a positive nature highlighting the love of God for His children and everljone in the family. The factual area would include those concepts which explain that death means that life stops; the person will not and cannot return to life, and the body will be buried. The child will follow your example more than the words you use to explain the pos4-death procedures.. But the primary need of the child is to be listened to and to have the 'questions answered briefly and with truth and love. This is a subject you may wish to discuss at length with your minister and funeral director. Both of use will be glad to help. iii?)ti ONTARIO FUNERAL SERVICE ASSOCIATION rhe Funeral Hone in E.•Isr who n a m,mbor of rho (Inco.poratedl Ontario Fun.roi Service Asroc ohon is, /?,e/le-4Y&C/Ce FUNERAL NOME P,g14 73s ono BOB FLETCHER IRV ARMSTRONG sculptures such as Cabbage Patch Kid, Turtle, Dog and Dragon/Dinasour.
