Funeral Services & Planning for the Fayetteville, NC Area

The Importance of Holding a Memorial Service

Memorial services can be held in a variety of different venues and be structured according to any tradition you choose. Regardless of what the memorial service you plan looks like, holding one is an important ritual that benefits everyone involved. Here are just a few of the ways that holding a memorial service can help your family through the grieving process:

• Pay Tribute: A memorial service is the perfect time to honor your loved one's life. You could consider inviting family and friends to share thoughts, memories, and stories - you might even learn something new about your loved one! Appreciating the special moments of their life will help you feel better during a difficult time.
• Share Support: A memorial service allows families and friends to come together to comfort and support one another during an extremely difficult time. You will feel supported by your community as they share in your grief.
• Get a Sense of Closure: It can be extremely difficult to adjust to the passing of a loved one. A memorial service often serves to offer a sense of closure, which is an important step in the grieving process. While you will certainly never forget your loved one, the memorial service is an important first step on your journey to healing.
• Celebrate a Life: The memorial service is your chance to put your loved one's life in the spotlight and celebrate their unique, one-of-a-kind personality. We encourage your family to add special touches that reflect your loved one's distinctive identity, from photos and mementos to their favorite music, food, and other interesting additions.
