Today is World Su***de Prevention Day.

It’s a day to honour the memories of those we’ve lost to su***de and to offer support to those facing difficult times and those living with the grief of losing someone.

The message of ‘Changing the Narrative on Su***de’ encourages us to change how we talk about su***de. To replace silence and stigma for empathy, compassion and action.

We all have a role to play in staying connected, showing up for those we care about and helping those struggling access the support they need.

Show the people around you that you’re there for them by asking 'are you OK?'. Because a conversation could change a life.

🪽💗🕊️

If you're wondering where they've gone,
They are never too far away,
Our loved ones watch over us,
Each moment of every day.

Of course we can't see them,
As they are just beyond the veil,
But the connection of the love we share,
Will always come forth and prevail.

Maybe a gentle whisper heard,
Or a feather on your path,
Reminding us that love goes on,
Remembered in each smile and laugh.

Their essence can be present in a song,
Or in a scent from days now passed,
They may visit in a surreal dream,
where you hug again at last.

So, don't ever resign yourself to believing,
that our loved ones disappear,
They are always leaving little signs,
To let you know they're near ..

Yesterday family and friends of the very much loved Yvonne Campbell gathered together to celebrate her wonderful life. Tammy and Samantha your beautiful eulogy had us all wishing she was our Grandma and Ross your kind and thoughtful words for your neighbour left us a little teary. There was no doubt that Yvonne blessed all who came across her…especially on one’s birthday we hear. That beautiful cake in that big white box is something we all would love to have on our special day. It’s a pity the box was so big or our staff members might just have walked off with it for
afternoon tea. At the end of Yvonne’s service though there was something quite sweet…the biggest table of glazed Krispy Kreme donuts. What an absolutely special touch. Majestic Funerals would like to thank Yvonne’s family for allowing us to care for Yvonne and for your family at this difficult time.
We also thank so Kylie Jones for officiating this unique service.

At this sad time we are keeping the thoughts of all first responders and in particular Victoria Police in our thoughts and prayers. We extend our deepest condolences to the families of Detective Leading Senior Constable Neal Thompson and Senior Constable Vadim De Waart and their families. 💔💔

The hearts of many ache in quiet pain,
A somber truth that falls like gentle rain.
Though sorrow still lingers in the morning light,
We stand together through the longest of nights.
The sun will still rise on a day of grey,
And our support for you will never sway.

As a new day begins, we continue to hold Victoria Police and the families who are grieving in our thoughts. Though the weight of sorrow remains, we stand in solidarity with our colleagues. 💙

Folks, please take a minute or two to read this post or maybe a few more to listen to the wonderful podcast about how Derek’s Place came to be.

Do you know the story of how Derek's Place came to be? And what are our plans for the future?

Recently Rachel Brittliff, founding committee member and Derek's sister, was interviewed by Alan Suy on the Silent Warriors Podcast.

Rachel spoke about our plans to build a family-centred palliative care facility, discussing how important it is that we take time in this planning phase:

"This is a process of understanding and learning and delivering better care. Because the more families we deal with the more we learn about what their needs are. When we started this journey we had the experience of one family - being ours. But every family's journey is different, and having that understanding is a really key part of planning something that's going to deliver for families."

The Silent Warriors Podcast shares inspiring stories of every day people who face challenges, overcoming battles for a greater good. It is produced by & Co.

Before the days end we would like to wish our staff member Mel the very happiest of birthdays. We appreciate you for everything you do for us as your colleagues and of course all that you do for the wonderful families that we serve. There is nothing that is to difficult for you to do. You exceed every expectation as a funeral director. We would be lost without you. Hope you’ve had a fabulous day. 💛💖💛💖
