💌 Happy Valentine’s Day — Love in Many Forms

Today is for the many shapes of love—romance, friendship, family bonds, and kindness toward yourself. If joy is close, savor it; if memories feel tender, be gentle with your heart. A simple note, a shared dessert, or a quick call can make someone’s day. May love meet you just where you are. 🌹🍫✨

What’s one small way you’ll show love—of any kind—today?

🐾 Cold-Weather Care for Pets

Paws can be sensitive to salt and ice—wipe them after walks and keep outings short on very cold days. Provide a warm resting spot away from drafts and check outdoor water bowls so they don’t freeze. If it’s too cold for you, it’s likely too cold for them. Cozy companions deserve cozy care. ❄️🐶

How do you keep your furry friend comfortable in winter?

❤️ American Heart Month — Gentle Habits, Strong Heart

February is American Heart Month, a time to focus on everyday choices that protect your heart. Aim for about 150 minutes of moderate activity each week (or 75 minutes vigorous), add two days of strength work, and choose fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins most often.

Keep an eye on blood pressure and cholesterol, and try for 7–9 hours of sleep—small, steady habits make a real difference. Your heart works for you every moment; let this month be your reminder to care for it. ❤️🫀🚶♀️

What one heart-healthy habit will you start—and keep—this week?

🌿 Hello, February: A Little Green Indoors

Winter can feel softer with a touch of life on the windowsill. Caring for an easy houseplant—like pothos or snake plant—adds color, routine, and a sense of calm.

A weekly watering check and a turn toward the light can become a peaceful ritual. Small, living reminders help brighten chilly days. 🌱☀️🫶

Weathering the Storm Together

As the recent winter storm moved through New Kensington, it was a reminder of what it means to be part of a community that looks out for one another. While the snow has certainly changed the landscape this week, our commitment to the families of this area remains as steady as ever.

RJ Slater IV Funeral Home & Cremation Service is—and will always be—family-operated. We aren't just a business on Freeport Road; we are your neighbors. We are raising our children here in these same neighborhoods, experiencing the same seasons, and we couldn't be prouder to call this community home.

We believe that every family has the fundamental right to honor their loved ones with dignity, regardless of the circumstances. That belief is the backbone of everything we do

Whether the sun is shining or the snow is falling, we’ve been here for the last 9+ years and we will be here for many decades to come.

Stay safe and stay warm, New Kensington. We are proud to serve you.

🚪 Winter Home Comfort – Draft Check & Warmth

A few quick fixes can warm your space and lower stress: check for drafts at doors/windows, add a door sweep, and close curtains at night to keep heat in. Replace furnace filters on schedule and keep flammables away from space heaters. Small habits mean safer, cozier days for everyone at home. 🏠🧣🔥

What’s one simple step you’ll take this week for a warmer, safer home?

✊🏾 Martin Luther King Jr. Day – Honoring a Legacy of Love and Justice

Today we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—a leader whose courage, love, and moral clarity continue to guide us. His work for civil rights and human dignity reminds us that community grows stronger when we choose justice, compassion, and service. May we carry his legacy forward in how we show up for one another—every day. Thank you, Dr. King, for the light you shared. 🕊️🖤🌟

🧭 Paperwork Peace – Getting Organized, Gently

January is a good time to gather and organize important documents—wills, contact lists, insurance information, advance directives, and personal wishes. Create one clearly labeled folder, note where originals are stored, and share the location with a trusted person. A simple checklist and a few quiet minutes each week can bring clarity and peace of mind.

If you’re not sure where to start with preplanning, RJ Slater IV is here to help—kindly, at your pace. Call 📞(724) 335-0100 or visit 🌐https://www.rjslater.com/pre-arrangement-process
for gentle guidance and answers to your questions.

🧘 Winter Rest – Protecting Your Sleep

Short days can shift routines—protect your sleep with a steady bedtime, dim lights before bed, and a quiet wind-down. Even 10 minutes of reading or journaling can settle a busy mind. Better rest supports mood, focus, and resilience for the week ahead. Small rhythms, steady strength. 🌙📖🫖

What helps you wind down on winter evenings?

🥣 Winter Nourishment – Simple, Warm, Balanced

Cold days call for cozy bowls—think vegetable soups, hearty beans, whole grains, and colorful frozen produce. Small choices add up: a handful of greens, an extra glass of water, or fruit after dinner. Balanced meals help steady energy and mood through winter’s pace. Nourish the body, and the heart follows. 🥕🍎✨

What’s your favorite winter meal that makes you feel good?
