All families were Catholic, had surviving siblings, and had had three or more years to grieve their loss when interviewed. The deceased children ranged in age from 3 to 14, and all experienced sudden, traumatic, nonsuicide deaths. To provide a broader, contextual picture of their grief experiences, four individuals who supported these family members after the loss were also interviewed. Unique grief experiences were identified, and eight common themes emerged, reflecting the ways in which family members maintained their bond to the deceased: dreams, storytelling, keepsakes, sense of presence, faith-based connections, proximity connections, ongoing rituals, and pictorial remembrances. The cultural implications of family bereavement are highlighted. 2006 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context <a href="http://doi.org/10.1037/1099-9809.12.2.199" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">10.1037/1099-9809.12.2.199</a> Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Article information provided for research and reference use only.
