MEmorials

Whether your memorial service is held soon after your death or sometime later, its primary purpose is to support the bereaved and help them process their grief by coming together as a community to honor your memory. 

Don’t you want to actively insure that memory reflects your true spirit and who and what you hold most dear? Is there a prayer, song or poem you want recited? Do you want people to recall your love of sports, or to showcase your skill in painting, quilting or your signature cookie recipe? Are there people you want to play a part in the service, or not to attend at all?

Making the event truly about you vs. cookie cutter also nurtures the healing process by reminding attendees how you lived, not just that you died.

Advance planning your own funeral/memorial is more about personalization than ego. It’s not interference; it unburdens loved ones from having to guess and/or make multiple decisions while grieving.

Work with My Great Goodbye to weave your passions and signature style into the design of your last event, to enable greater family and friend involvement and a stronger connection to your life and legacy.
