Following the death of someone significant in your life, it is important to put aside the space and time to grieve. A Funeral, remembrance ritual or Memorial ceremony performs this important role. In conducting this significant rite of passage, you are giving those who are suffering, permission to grieve. This is a very powerful step on the pathway to healing.<\/p>\n

A memorial service can provide many personal options and flexibility beyond a traditional funeral. Particularly if you will also be hosting a wake directly following the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Many of our Picaluna Funeral directors<\/a> are also Funeral and Wedding Celebrants and this gives them access to a wealth of knowledge in guiding you toward appropriate wake and memorial venues.<\/p>\n

During the days of the pandemic, funerals and end of life rites had to adapt to the setting of the moment. This put many on a pathway where they were unable to perform the kind of tributes they would have wished for their loved one.<\/p>\n

A memorial ceremony, planned at a time that allows contributions from those who would like to be involved, offers a large variety of farewell options.<\/p>\n
