ABOUT US

Losing someone is already hard enough on its own. But we’re dedicated to making it a bit less hard, for everyone, every day.

When we experienced deaths in our own lives, we saw that many things were made harder than they needed to be. Loss is very hard. We started Hugs & Words to help people navigate the process of losing loved ones and get emotional support.
