Widowers and Widows

National Widowers Organization

The National Widowers’ Organization is a virtual toolkit for men  coping with the loss of a loved one, a place where men can meet others  going through the same transition.


There are a lot of things men suffer alone. That’s part of our DNA.  We find great personal satisfaction in accomplishing on our own,  independently. We famously won’t ask for directions, won’t admit when we  are lost – we prefer to find our own way home. And eventually we do.  Most of the time. And that’s fine; that’s our way. But, as new and  continuing research shows, there’s one loss that men could use a little  help from their friends to cope with. That’s the loss of a spouse or a  lover or a parent or a child or a lifelong friend. And it’s often help  that only other men can provide. 


Because we understand, many times  without saying the words, where you’re at, how you got there and even  why.

Modern Loss

Modern Loss is a place to share the unspeakably taboo, unbelievably  hilarious, and unexpectedly beautiful terrain of navigating your life  after a death.


This project grew out of two friends’ separate experiences with  sudden loss, and their struggle to find resources that weren’t too  clinical, overtly religious, patronizing or, frankly, cheesy.


Candid conversation about grief. Beginners welcome.
