Honoring The Past… Rebuilding The Future
Education & Support
When Wings-a Grief Education Ministry was established as a non-profit organization in 1993, the founders, Nan & Gary Zastrow believed that education was the key to healing grief. Since 1997, Wings has offered workshops, seminars, presentations and support groups for the community focusing on Hope and healthy grief practices. Education/support groups are offered through ZOOMGRIEF, virtual, and in-person classroom. Offering education through different media has proven beneficial for a wider variety of participants who were not able to attend before.
Articles & Inspiration & Poems
This is your RESOURCE section. In this section are dozens of articles , information, and inspiration to help you understand grief. We have included guest articles and Nan’s published articles. Additionally, Wings publishes an eLetter quarterly. These are also located here.
This website and the non-profit Wings continues in memory of our son, Chad E Zastrow and my husband, Gary Lee Zastrow. “I thank God for the day you were born. I praise Him for orchestrating our love story. I hold in reverence each day that you both graced my life. I will continue to say your names, tell others about you, and keep your legacy alive. Death did not erase my love for you. You are both etched into my heart for eternity.”
