Many of us will grieve the death of a friend. Yet, this particular kind of
grief is not recognized as often as that experienced when a spouse, child, or
parent dies. Grief counselor and speaker Harold Ivan Smith has worked with
"friend grief" both professionally and personally. In this short volume, he
offers comfort and encouragement to those who have lost a friend by validating
their grief, urging them to give their grief a voice, and remembering their
friend.
