Benefit Concert for Grief Watch & The Dougy Center
February 18, 2012, The Old Church
In February 2011, Portland songwriter and performer Lincoln Crockett and his wife Alicia lost their baby, Joseph Phoenix, shortly after childbirth. As they and their four year old son grieved they were buoyed by friends and family who introduced the family to two priceless resources: Grief Watch, a resource for dealing with loss, and The Dougy Center, supporting grieving children and families. These organizations not only give support to grieving families and children right here in Portland, OR, but from all over the country. Both groups provide invaluable information, knowledge and experience on how to grieve, how to heal, how to live again after the kinds of losses and tragedies people fear most.
The purpose of this benefit concert is:
1) to raise awareness of these fantastic, national-caliber resources right here in Portland, and
2) to support their important work. As the Crockett’s shared their loss they realized that people around them are grieving, often alone, for lost babies, children, siblings, friends, parents and lives; almost NONE of them know about the help that is available from Grief Watch and the Dougy Center.

The holidays are approaching quickly, and with them come the inevitable thoughts of loved ones who are no longer with us. While the memories can leave us longing for one more day with those who have died, they also give us the opportunity to look back on the good times and to cherish the time that we did have with our departed loved ones. We hope that you all take time to treasure the past and to savor the present this holiday season.
We are planning to reestablish our free monthly e-newsletter within the next few weeks. The first issue will focus on grief during the holidays. Those who have shown interest in the past have been automatically added to the list of upcoming recipients. If you wish to receive our newsletter and have not already registered, feel free to join by entering your email in the ‘Sign Up for Our Newsletter’ box near the bottom of this page and hit ‘Subscribe.’

School is back in session. August was busy with all of us trying to cram in last minute summer vacations with our kids before it was back to the normal school year grind. While we will miss the extra trips and time with our families, it is always nice to have the office a little quiter and calmer without the addition of all of our kids taking turns to visit.
