Veterans Day marks our gratefulness and respect for all of those who have served in our military and in the defense of our nation. It is a major point of pride for all of those who have sacrificed or have loved someone who has. 

Every person, no matter where or how long they lived, has special dates associated with their lives. Wedding anniversaries, birthdays, and notable events all come to mind as we pass through the calendar year.

If there is any doubt in your mind about the importance of having a special moment for your loved one, please consider the following ideas.

An obituary recognizes the impact that person had on their community, their ties to the community, and the family members that are left behind.

Funerals and end-of-life traditions are an essential part of saying goodbye to those who have passed, creating a final moment of memory and peace that draws us together in our love for those who have gone before us.

Part of truly loving someone is the hopes and dreams that we have of a life with them, always looking towards the future. 

Though the grieving process looks and feels different for everyone, there are certain steps we can take, and points to think about, that might make the process a bit easier.

The loss of a grandparent can be particularly hard for young children, especially ones that might be too young to really grasp what has happened.

Given the events of the last two years, it has not always been possible for everyone to attend a memorial service that would have liked to.

Funeral pre-planning is a beautiful gift of preparation and anticipation, both for yourself and for your friends and family. It means that one of the most difficult aspects of saying goodbye has already been taken care of.
