Remembering the humorous antics they did and said. It will cause you to reflect on the things they did that irritated you and to smile at their foolishness, craziness, or other endearing characteristics.

At a celebration memorial service, you’ll find yourself grinning as you recall the fun times shared, rather than succumbing to grief over their passing.

Heal While Grieving

It is natural and healthy to grieve your loss. All celebrations help the grieving process; the goal of a celebratory day is to enable you to celebrate the living you shared rather than lament in their death.

A celebration allows family and friends to be guided to view things differently and perhaps more positively. 

While it is understandable to feel sad after any type of loss, a celebration ceremony enables you to appreciate the living shared with the deceased. At a traditional funeral service families often leave remembering the body they saw in the casket where as with many memorial services families leave smiling after seeing a video of their loved ones smile.

Special Arrangements
