The Compassionate Friends Annual Worldwide Candle Lighting honors and remembers children who have died. This year’s event will be held tonight at 7 p.m. local time. Please share this post with those you believe could benefit from the healing act of remembering a child who has died.

As always, my candle remembering my son, Eric, will be burning brightly, too.
