Today is National Hugging Day 🤍

A simple hug can say so much, offering comfort, support, and connection when words fall short. Whether it’s a hug for a loved one, a friend, or someone who may need extra encouragement today, those small moments of kindness can make a big difference.

Take a moment to share a hug and remind someone they’re not alone.

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

His message of compassion, equality, and service continues to inspire us to care for one another and strengthen our communities. On this day of remembrance, we reflect on his words and strive to lead with kindness, understanding, and love in all that we do.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?” 💛

🌱What is a green burial? Great question!

A green burial is an environmentally conscious option that focuses on simplicity, sustainability, and honoring the natural cycle of life. It allows a loved one to return to the earth in a gentle, natural way, supporting the environment and future growth. 🌎

Choosing a green burial does not mean giving up meaningful moments of remembrance. Families can still have private time, visitations, and memorial services to honor, celebrate, and say goodbye to their loved one in a way that feels personal and respectful. Our staff is here to answer any questions!

In 2025, Central Cremation Center Pet Services was honored to care for 475 cherished pets through our clinics and directly with families.

From dogs and cats to guinea pigs, rabbits, a duck, reptiles, a hedgehog, a sugar glider, and a bird, each one was loved—and each one mattered.

Thank you for trusting us. 🕊️🐾
