Memorial Services

A memorial service is an excellent way for your family to celebrate the life of your loved one and while giving them a meaningful goodbye. Unlike a traditional funeral service that typically occurs within a few days after the deceased passes, a memorial service can take place at any time.

A celebration of life is an opportunity for friends and relatives to pay tribute to a loved one while saying goodbye in a uniquely personal way. As you explore ideas for a service, consider what the deceased would enjoy, but also ensure you meet the emotional and spiritual needs of your guests.

Both funerals and celebrations of life serve as a way for families to acknowledge the death of a loved one and say goodbye. However, there are many differences between the two which often leads a family to choose one over the other.
