A few websites were suggested by a friend in reference to work that she is doing with the Clear Light Funeral, which we will be writing much more about in the near future.
She says: “The Lantern.co is a very useful resource. Also, Talk of a Lifetime is one resource that I found useful in ‘how to initiate’ conversations about end of life and seeking ceremony specifically addresses creating a meaningful end of life ceremony.”
We found this meaningful quote on the Seeking Ceremony website: “When you don’t know what to say, or how to say it, ceremony is a good place to start.”
Finally, what is the difference between a funeral and a memorial service?
“The mortuary industry on the internet seems to say: “A funeral service typically takes place with the body of the departed present, whereas a memorial service takes place without the actual body present.” It’s also a memorial service when the person’s ashes, or “cremains” are present.
Many people are having zoom memorials. There is a great deal of coordination required. So I started looking for something a little more flexible and yet accessible. Ancestry’s We Remember memory pages are an interesting ‘non-commercial’ way to celebrate a life.”
