 Families who have lost due to Covid-19 experience prolonged grief which will have an impact on psychological problems such as depression, anxiety, and sadness. This study aims to explore the life experiences of families who have experienced loss due to Covid-19. This study used a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. The participants in this study were 6 people who had experiences of loss due to Covid-19. Family experiences were explored through in-depth interviews and analyzed using the Colaizzi method. The results of this study provide an overview of the experiences of families who have experienced loss due to Covid-19. Families experience unpreparedness to lose due to Covid-19 which is described in four themes, namely a bad death, the family's response to loss, support in the family, and praying for peace of mind. It was concluded that families who experienced loss due to Covid-19 experienced unfinished grief such as a lack of family readiness to accept the loss and not following the rituals that are usually carried out after the loss.Keywords: Covid-19; loss of family; mourn; experience ABSTRAK Keluarga yang kehilangan akibat Covid-19 mengalami duka berkepanjangan yang nantinya berdampak pada masalah psikologis seperti depresi, kecemasan, dan kesedihan.
