Just as much as we feel the need to celebrate happy moments in our life, starting with birth, death is a passage that deserves to have its own rituals in memory and honor of those we lost.
With a secular memorial, we can honor those who left us too soon, left a mark on our heart and whose existence we want to preserve in memory. After all, aren’t they still walking besides us?
It’s also an opportunity to reminisce about the precious bond which has been shared with the deceased, and finding solace in this difficult time. By going gently and kindly through the grieving process and by releasing all the emotions that come with loss.
As with each secular ceremony, there is no one way to pay tribute. It’s all up to you, what you envision and want.
Although it is a funeral, a secular memorial lets you break free of an impersonal and stern setting, while customizing each step of the ceremony. With a tone matching what is known of the deceased and with meaningful personal references relating to the life of the deceased.
A secular funeral gives you a moment of recollection beyond sadness by embracing hope and renewal. Like a bridge between a visible and an invisible realm, that breathes eternal life into a memory and forever connects you to the Afterlife.
