Carolyn was just 13 years old in 1971 when her father died by suicide. Now, 54 years later, she reflects on how that loss shaped her life—from the way she processed it as a young teenager to the insights she’s gained through decades of healing.

 Carolyn shares why the support—or absence—of a child’s community plays a powerful role in their grief journey. She also reminds us that grief doesn’t discriminate; no matter who is left behind, the pain and the path to healing are deeply personal.
