Each person has a story that will be remembered. Let’s plan a Virtual Memorial that is just as unique as your person.

  • Did they like jazz? Let’s hire a musician to play their favorite standard during the service.

  • Did they have a favorite dessert? Let’s share a special recipe and invite everyone to bring that dessert- we can eat together and connect with one another during the open reception.

  • Did they have a passion for gardening? We can plant some seeds together or water and care for a house plant- we can let the act of planting seeds or tending to a house plant be an act of love in honor of the departed.

  • Did they love to read? Let’s recite a poem that they loved, or one that makes you think of them.
