Cremation With Visitation

Some families are choosing to have their loved ones cremated with a memorial service at the funeral home. So what does this mean for those visiting the funeral home? The answer is actually quite simple do the same as you would when paying your respects to the family with a body present. It is still appropriate to send flowers to the funeral home, make donations to the deceased’s favorite charity or memorials to the family.

In moments of loss, what families often remember most are the stories — the small, vivid details that made their loved one unmistakably *themselves*.
Being close to your loved one is important
Grief has a way of reshaping life.
For your consideration
At times we all struggle with what to say when a loved one, a friend or acquaintance has just lost someone to death. We find we often struggle with the right words to say, often times we over think what we should say and we may decide to say nothing at all. At times just being present to the person can make a huge difference or one may say, “I don’t know what to say, but I am here for you.”
Grief is a deeply personal journey, and when someone we care about is hurting, it’s natural to want to help
Furry friends are family
Planning is not easy....
