Cincinnati’s most respected funeral provider offers some creative ways to memorialize your loved ones:
Light a Candle: Pick out a special candle
that reminds you of your loved one—their favorite color or scent will bring back precious memories. Light it on special days, such as Mother’s/Father’s day, a birthday, or a unique family memory, and create a new tradition.
Create a Special Space: Create a space in your home devoted to your loved one. Include photos, favorite items, and other mementos, displaying the space for friends and family members during the holidays or on your loved one’s birthday.
Build a Scrapbook: Get together with others in grief to create a special scrapbook filled with memories. It will create a lasting legacy honoring your loved one, as well as a way for those in grief to bond and share memorable moments, photos, and mementos for decades after the funeral.
Embrace Nature: Plant a flower, garden, or tree (or locate one nearby), and devote it to your loved one. You might even try tying a ribbon in his or her favorite color around the scenery. You can also display your loved one’s favorite plants or flowers in your home.
