PALM BEACH GARDENS | During the early days of the pandemic, the Diocese of Palm Beach’s Office of Marriage, Family Life, Faith Formation and Youth Ministry received many calls from people who were grieving loss in their family and asking for help. With many offices and programs curtailed or closed because of COVID-19, it was difficult to find a lifeline that was readily available. “The more I saw the need, the more I started looking into it,” said Beth Zanotelli, family life coordinator for the diocese. There was a program at St. Vincent Ferrer Parish in Delray Beach called GriefShare, which, Zanotelli learned, offers 13 weeks of videos, a workbook and group meetings that emphasize sharing and listening.
