Sometimes, a loved one passes away and nothing is organized. There’s no plan or paperwork… Just heartbreak and panic. Here’s what to do when that happens:

1️⃣ Call us first – We’ll take care of transportation, secure permits and start guiding you.
2️⃣ Gather what you can – Recent ID, basic family info and any records you do find.
3️⃣ Don’t panic if there’s no will – We’ll explain what steps to take and what’s legally required.
4️⃣ Delay non-urgent tasks – Financials, insurance and paperwork can wait a few days.
5️⃣ Lean on us – We’ve walked families through this before. You're not “handling it poorly”—you’re grieving.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. That’s what we’re here for. 🤍

It’s one of the most common things we hear after a loss… “People want to help, but I don’t even know what to ask for.” Next time someone asks you what you need, review this list:

1️⃣ Start with Practical Tasks
❤️‍🩹 Grocery runs or meal drop-offs
❤️‍🩹 Pet care or child transportation
❤️‍🩹 Help with phone calls or paperwork

2️⃣ Think About Emotional Needs
❤️‍🩹 A friend who will just sit with you
❤️‍🩹 Someone to check in on tough days
❤️‍🩹 A listening ear—without needing to “fix it”

3️⃣ Remember This
❤️‍🩹 You’re not a burden.
❤️‍🩹 Most people want to support you—they just don’t know how.
❤️‍🩹 It’s okay to say, “I’m not sure yet, but I’ll let you know.”

You don’t have to do this alone. And you can accept kindness, even if you feel like you don’t have it all figured out. 🤍

Not sure what to do after you bring the urn home? 🏡 Some families keep it on a shelf, scatter it later, or even divide the ashes into multiple urns or keepsakes. There’s no one “right” option.

A meaningful service doesn’t have to follow a script. In fact, some of the most healing moments come from breaking tradition.

❌ Myth: A funeral has to be formal, quiet and somber.
✅ Fact: It can include laughter, music, or a toast—whatever honors their spirit.

❌ Myth: Personal touches are only for big, elaborate services.
✅ Fact: Even a simple display table or a shared memory can make the experience feel right.

❌ Myth: You can’t include hobbies, humor, or pets.
✅ Fact: You absolutely can—and we’ve seen how much comfort that brings.

❌ Myth: If it’s not “traditional,” people will judge.
✅ Fact: The people who matter just want to feel your love for them.

We’re here to help you create a goodbye that feels like them. Let go of what’s “expected”—all that matters is what feels meaningful. 🤍

Many people don’t realize you can plan—and even pay for—funeral arrangements months/years in advance. 🗂️ It’s not required, but it can take a lot of pressure off your family during a very difficult time.

Grief doesn’t follow a straight line. It moves in waves—and healing means making room for all of it. 🌊

09/09/2025

September 7–13 is Su***de Prevention Week. For those who have lost someone to su***de, this week can bring up memories, questions and pain that never fully fades.

If you’ve walked this path, you already know:
💔 The grief is layered.
💔 The questions don’t have neat answers.
💔 The silence can feel louder than the loss.

But there’s a duality to this experience, too:
❤️ Your grief is valid.
❤️ Their life mattered.
❤️ You can love them still.

You don’t have to pretend it didn’t happen or hide the truth… You can carry the complexity of that loss without shame.

We’re honored to help families find meaningful ways to honor their loved one—no matter what that looks like.

09/02/2025

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month—and for some families, it’s more than a cause. It’s a wound they carry every day.

🧸 If you've loved a child who’s no longer here…
🧸 If certain dates or colors bring a lump to your throat…
🧸 If you're parenting children while grieving someone too soon…
🧸 If you're wondering how the world keeps turning…

We see you. We honor the depth of your love and the child who changed everything.
And we’re holding space for both your heartbreak and your courage this month. 🤍

It’s easy to focus on the big pieces of funeral planning—burial or cremation, location, and date.

But just as often, families forget about the details that shape how a service feels:
🗣️ Who’s speaking?
📷 Will there be photos or a slideshow?
🎶 Is there music—and who’s choosing it?
🪻 Will there be programs, flowers, or a memory table?
🌐 Do you need a livestream link for family who can’t attend?

You don’t need to have every answer now, but knowing these questions are coming can help you prepare.

And if you ever feel unsure, we’re right here to walk you through it.

08/22/2025

Today we honor the babies who were born after loss—and the ones who came before them. 🌈 To the parents carrying both grief and gratitude in your hearts: We remember with you. 🤍
