"An evening with Alan Pedersen is
an experience like none other…"
Darci Sims Ph.D., CHT, CT, GMS – popular
author and speaker on grief and loss
Alan Pedersen is a bereaved father, award
winning songwriter, successful recording
artist, and nationally recognized speaker on
grief and loss.
In August of 2001 Alan’s only daughter
Ashley was killed in an automobile accident
in Colorado. This tragedy took his life in a
direction he never imagined. His pain and
journey toward finding joy again have been
the subject matter for three highly acclaimed
CD’s of original songs.
As an in-demand keynote speaker and
workshop presenter, Alan has been featured
at many international, national, and regional
conferences including The World Gathering
on Bereavement, The Compassionate Friends
National Conference, and The National
Gathering of Bereaved Parents of the USA.
His music is popular with bereaved people
around the world and is used at hundreds of
candle lighting services, balloon and butterfly
releases, and by hundreds of professionals
and organizations as a healing tool for the
bereaved.
Alan’s message is simple, “We were put on
this earth to love them for as long as WE
live, not for as long as THEY lived.” He
believes that healing comes slow, but does
come as we reach out to others who share
this journey and offer our hand to help.
With a gentle mix of humor and straightfrom-
the-heart talk wrapped around powerful
songs about love and loss, an evening with
Alan Pedersen will make for a unique, healing
and memorable concert experience. |
