Widow Wednesdays to begin March 6

Dingmann Funeral Homes is proud to announce a new, monthly gathering for the community: Widow Wednesdays.  Join Matthew Nath at the Luverne branch of the Dingmann Funeral Homes on the first Wednesday of each month, starting March 6, 2024, at 6 p.m.  Each month will feature a guest speaker to share and educate.  On March 6, we will be welcoming Bill Korth, who will be sharing his experiences and journey through grief after the loss of his wife, Karri.  Following a short presentation, we will gather for coffee, cookies and fellowship until 7:30, when we will be participating in an optional service project. 

Each month will feature a different project. For March we will be assembling flower bouquets to be delivered to local nursing homes, assisted living centers, and the Hospice Cottage. We look forward to seeing you there.
