Jane Burgio, a retired speech-language pathologist and early childhood educator, is the founder of Grace After Loss.

Grace After Loss was birthed from Jane's personal journey of grief and grace following the loss of her beloved husband, Joe. With a heart anchored in faith, she creates devotionals, resources, and gatherings that help others encounter the comforting presence of God through life’s deepest valleys. Her writing has been described as honest, hope-filled, and rich with Scripture, offering space for others to heal and flourish. She lives in Western New York and is passionate about worship, prayer, and meaningful conversations with loved ones.

Grace After Loss: A message of hope and healing for those navigating grief. Discover how God gently rebuilds our hearts after devastating loss.

The Gift of Presence: How we can embody Christ’s love simply by showing up in someone’s pain. Practical encouragement for family, community, and care workers.

Endorsements & Testimonials

"I highly recommend Jane's speaking engagements! I have experienced firsthand working with Jane in our Bible Uplift ministry—a daily devotional. Her kindness, compassion, and expertise will bring comfort and peace to all that hear. I am confident that her positive attitude, faith in God, dedication to helping others, and easy-to-work-with nature will be encouraging and inspiring."

"I enjoy listening to the (YouTube) messages and felt compelled to share them with others in the same situation. The word at Grace After Loss is always encouraging and full of Scriptural truth. My friends also enjoyed them and were helped."

Tanaya S., Ft. Lauderdale, FL

After the recent passing of my loving brother, I have experienced hope and encouragement towards healing tremendous emotional pain thru the spiritual and practical presentations provided in this well planned and organized site. Although the impetus for motivating Jane to create this website was the passing of her husband, it can benefit any of us suffering any loss. I purchased all 3 books and am eagerly focusing on completing them at my own pace. I'm a retired nurse who is very familiar with suffering and death of a loved one. You never get use to it. The books are inexpensive and make an excellent gift for a grieving individual. Praising God for blessing you Jane to use your talents to help His people. Praying you find peace and healing on your journey by helping others.
