Griever: Robert Geibert, RN EdD
Educator: Harold Ivan Smith
Moderator: Ken Levy

In this program, Dr. Harold Ivan Smith, co-author of *A Partnered Grief*, joins Dr. Robert Geibert, a gay widower, to discuss the unique aspects of grieving the sudden death of a husband or partner. Bob’s husband—a healthy nurse-educator in his sixties—collapsed and died unexpectedly at home. As a nurse himself, Bob had experienced the loss of patients and parents, but nothing compared to the death of his spouse. This candid conversation reflects on his grief four years later, approaching the holiday season.

Our webinar series offers honest and practical conversations that provide support, connection and insight for men coping with loss—helping them navigate grief and find a path forward.
