Often children don’t want their toys or blankets washed, because it simply won’t smell the same.

This is common when it comes to hanging onto memories once our loved one has died as well. We hang onto items they were wearing when they died or items that hold their scent.

I personally have put bedding into a bag because it is what they slept on their last night, I also put the sweater I was wearing when I held them for the last time in that bag as well.

It’s possible that there is no scent, it is possible that there are no hairs, but I feel a sense of comfort knowing that these items haven’t been altered since that day.

Sometimes even though things may not seem “normal” you have to accept that it is helpful for you… and therefore it is ok!

Today we give thanks and honour our Veterans. Turner Family Funeral Homes has been fortunate to serve several Veterans and their families this year. It is always such an honour to hear their stories. Thank you to the Dundas Legion Br. 36 for making today so special. It is so important that we gather as a community every year on Remembrance Day. Lest we forget ❤️

If you haven’t gotten your poppy yet be sure to pick one up today!

We are at Costco in Ancaster until 3pm. Regular poppies are a donation, and we have specialized pins (pictured) for a $10 donation.

Thank you to everyone for supporting the poppy fund this year!

We see the beauty in all cemeteries… but there’s something special about visiting the tiny, quaint cemeteries. Gathering with a family for an interment in these cemeteries always feels a bit more personal. We were so very fortunate to accompany a family we served, to lay their loved one to rest in this beautiful spot earlier this week.

It is extremely sad every time a love story ends.
Times are a bit different now, you leave High School often pursuing post secondary education and then you start to focus on your career.

Years ago it wasn’t the norm for women to be going to school and focusing on a career. Often times couples met young, married young and started their families!

It is always so amazing hearing about love stories that started 50+ years ago! While they are so fortunate to have been together for so long…. Grief hits hard once their partner has died.

It’s hard anytime you lose a spouse, but when you’ve been together 50+ years it is really hard to even know who you are without them.

Finding a new routine and a new normal will be hard. Don’t rush yourself or put pressure on yourself. Lean on your supports, walk down memory lane often and seek more help and guidance if you need to. We have a weekly grief support group, that is free… please reach out if you would benefit from this service.

Each love story is beautiful and deserves to be talked about and shared 🩷

The Royal Canadian Legion provides direct support to Veterans, and we think it is so important to raise awareness on all of the supports that are available BECAUSE of the Legion.

Services available to our Veteran’s include:

-Emergency Financial Assistance (including: food, heating , prescription medication, clothing, medical appliances and equipment, emergency shelter or assistance, and emergency home repair)

-Transitioning Support (including: assistance with relocation, employment, disability claims, emergency financial assistance, mental health supports, family supports and more)

-Mental Health Support (including: transition to civilian life, PTSD, anxiety, depression, addictions, family & couple counselling, and health and wellness programs)

In addition, the Legion also provides:
financial assistance, housing assistance, medical assistance, outreach and referral, peer support, and general support services.

Legions are a staple in many communities, but did you know how much they do for those who selflessly sacrificed so much? Did you know how much they do for veteran’s families that have also been through so much?

The many supports available to our Veterans would not be possible without The Royal Canadian Legion.

In Dundas we are so fortunate to have The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 36 right here in town! Dundas is such a close knit community, please support our local legion when you can. If you have questions about their services or if you are interested in becoming a member please reach out, we can help to connect you with some amazing members of our local Legion! Whether you donate, come out for events, want to learn more or want to become a member… you will instantly feel part of an important community❤️

We wear poppies to honour our veterans in November… but to you know how the money from the poppy fund is used?

The poppy fund directly supports our veterans and their families. The funds that are raised provides housing, accommodation and care facilities for veterans, funding for veteran transition programs (directly related to training education and supporting needs of veterans and their families), and lastly it provides comforts for veterans and their surviving spouses when they are hospitalized and in need.

Donating to the poppy fund directly allows us to give back to those who sacrificed so much.

The Legion supports Veterans in so many other ways as well. We will highlight other services they provide over the next week to spotlight this special time of year for every Canadian.

If you haven’t gotten your poppy yet, they are being sold all over town now! We were happy to support the Dundas Legion Br. 36 by having our team sell poppies at Costco in Ancaster today.
We will be there again on Wednesday from 9am -3pm, so come say hello and get your poppy!

Remember that not all locations will have a tap machine for donations so try to bring some change or cash! All donations are greatly appreciated. It is so nice to see so many people wearing poppies and supporting a cause that is so important. ❤️
