Sometimes, we assume there will always be more time. More time to reconnect. More time to say what’s on our hearts. More time to check in on the people who matter most.
But life has a way of reminding us that tomorrow isn’t promised.
If someone crosses your mind today, don’t wait. Call them. Hear their voice. Share a memory. Say the words you’ve been meaning to say.
A simple conversation could mean more than you know — to them, and to you.
Reminder: Call someone you love.

Memorabilia tells a story that words alone often cannot. Personal items reflect the heart, history, and personality of a loved one in a deeply meaningful way.
A favorite hat, a well-worn Bible, a jersey from their favorite team, a photo album filled with milestones, or a cherished collection can bring memories to life. These items serve as visual reminders of who they were, what they loved, and the moments that shaped them.
Incorporating personal belongings into a funeral or celebration of life creates a more meaningful and memorable experience. It encourages guests to share stories, smile at familiar memories, and reflect on the unique legacy your loved one leaves behind.

Remember Me
To the living, I am gone,
To the sorrowful, I will never return,
To the angry, I was cheated,
But to the happy, I am at peace,
And to the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.
So as you stand upon a shore gazi...
