Grief does not always look like tears.

Grief may show up as anger, silence, staying busy, pulling away, or carrying the weight for everyone else while struggling quietly inside.

We invite men to join us for Beyond The Silence: Men’s Grief Support Session on June 25.
This is a safe space for honest conversation, reflection, encouragement, and support. You do not have to have the perfect words. You do not have to carry it alone.

Men’s Grief Support Session: Beyond The Silence June 25 | 6:00–7:30 PM CST

The start of Father’s Day weekend was especially meaningful for the Calahan family.

Our President, Valerie Calahan Taylor, had the honor of paying tribute to our Founder, Edward Calahan, at Rainbow PUSH Coalition . In her remarks, Valerie spoke of her father not only as the founder of Calahan Funeral Home, but as the foundation on which she stands as she continues to lead the family business along with brother, Edric.
His vision and sacrifice, along with an unwavering commitment to service created a legacy that continues to guide our work every day. As a father, founder, and leader, Edward Calahan built more than a business with his wife Shirley Calahan , he built a standard of excellence that continues through the next generation.

This Father’s Day weekend, we honor the man, the father, and the foundation.

Happy Father’s Day to all fathers and father figures from Calahan Funeral Home and Cremations. We see you. We value you. We need you!

We were elated to be a sponsor of Fellowship Chicago . We had a great time connecting with so many Fellowship Chicago members, families, and friends.

Thank you to Pastor Sharpe and Lady Bri for having us and for creating such a joyful, meaningful space for community, connection, and celebration.

Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom, legacy, and community and the day was filled with all of that and more.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shared a smile, took a photo, or simply spent a few moments with us. We are grateful to serve and stand alongside such a warm, vibrant community.
So much fun, so much love, and so much Black joy!

June is Men’s Health Month and men’s mental and emotional health must be a part of the conversation. Too often, men are taught to carry grief in silence, to stay strong, even when their hearts are heavy.
Healing is not weakness. Talking is not weakness. Reaching for support is strength.

Join Calahan Funeral Home & Cremations for Beyond the Silence: Men’s Grief and Healing, a virtual grief support session created specifically for men to share, listen, and begin healing in a safe and supportive space.

Thursday, June 25, 2026
6:00–7:30 PM CST
Virtual on Zoom

This Men’s Health Month, let’s remind the men we love that their grief matters, their mental health matters, and they do not have to walk through loss alone.
