As the leaves begin to fall, we’re reminded of the beauty in change, and the gentle passing of time. Autumn can stir many emotions - reflection, gratitude, and sometimes sadness as we think of those no longer with us.

Today, we pause to honour those memories and the love that never fades, even as the seasons shift.🍂

Grieving allows individuals to start to come to terms with a loved one's passing.

Not marking the occasion with a mourning ritual such as an authentic funeral means that the bereaved do not have an opportunity to process the pivotal event and move towards a sense of closure.

Meaningful rituals are a timeless way to mark chapters in life, whether it's birthdays, christenings, marriages, or funerals. That's why different cultures throughout history have used funeral rites to come together and express their grief.
