A memorial service can be a comforting, healing and life-affirming time for families and friends to come together, remember and celebrate their loss. Memorial services provide the families greater flexibility in timing, location and format, as it enables them to take the time to make a meaningful tribute to the life of their loved one and be as unique as they lived their own life, lived, and lived in a manner characteristic of his or her values and memories.
We know that every life is unique and each family expresses their grief in different ways. Sadly, our Memorial Services are defined by planning meaningful and individual family activities to comfort, remember, and bring people together during a troubling time.
Creating a Personalized Memorial Experience
For each family, it is important that they pay tribute to their loved one in a meaningful and personal way. When many families reach us with enquiries like:
● What actions might we take so that the service is personalized?
● Can it take place after cremation?
● Do family members allow it to happen?
● Please show me someone who can sort it all out?
● Does the service incorporate our traditional beliefs, culture, or personal beliefs?
The answer is yes. Services can be very flexible and can be arranged to the family’s wishes and around the life being remembered.
You may be thinking of a funeral service, a celebration of life, a religious funeral, or a personalized memorial; we are here to help you make it what your loved one wanted it to be.
Families might want to add the following:
● Reflections and stories related to individuals
● Religious or spiritual readings
● Music that had special significance
● Memory tables and displays
● Video tributes
● Traditions, culture and family practice.
● Participation from family and friends
● Celebrating life and personal history sharing
Services may also be held after a cremation, offering more time for family members to get together, make travel arrangements and plan a more meaningful and thoughtful service.
Our staff attends to the details and is sensitive to your family’s needs, from the soonest to the furthest stage.
