Having a loved one pass away can leave you feeling empty and unsure of how to get closure. One excellent way you can do this is by honoring the person in some way. There are lots of options and lots of things you can choose. If you want to start planning a way to memorialize and honor your loved one, there are some things that directors of funeral homes in Philadelphia, PA<\/a> want you to know.<\/p>\n

For people who loved the outdoors and plants, planning a memorial garden for them can be a lovely option. This can include the whole family and it can offer not only the benefits of closure but also the benefits that people can get from being outside and working with plants. Think about the kinds of flowers or plants that your loved one would have wanted and also consider what ornaments they would have preferred.<\/p>\n

Another option you have that can be great for your entire family, especially if you have children, is to plan a memory book.

You can have recipes that they liked to make, song lyrics, poems they enjoyed, ticket stubs of things that you did with the person, and lots more. It can be a cathartic experience to put together a memory book, so do consider it.<\/p>\n
