Grief Support

Supporting you as you grieve

At Andrews Mortuary we understand the importance of providing grief support and bereavement resources to those that are dealing with a recent death. In an effort to continue our commitment of care to our families, we are pleased to provide a complete program of bereavement services. 

Bill Duggins is our Bereavement Coordinator.
In the difficult days following the funeral, Bill will address your individual needs by providing on-going support, bereavement resources, referrals to community grief groups and grief professionals. He also works within the community to provide grief support and education 

 Bill also serves as the coordinator for our social bereavement group Facing Forward and our Speaker Series, which provides education on grief
to the entire community.  By facilitating the Greater Wilmington Support Group Network, Bill continues to work with local groups and services to connect people to the support and resources that meet their unique needs. Bill has a Master's Degree in School Psychology and Clinical Counseling from Wake Forest University and has worked extensively with grieving students and families within the context of both school and community settings. Bill can provide helpful materials on grief through our Lending Library and suggest other supportive resources.
