On the other hand, a more comprehensive service with a few days of events includes a visitation or viewing, a funeral service in the chapel or a church building, and a graveside ceremony at the cemetery. Cremation with a memorial service can look similar. And you can even combine a funeral with cremation by choosing casket rentals.

Last week was the Graystone summit, which we could not attend this year. During one of the sessions, when they announced the awards for each category, we won. Our team at Ridley, took top spot in all six. categories. As I was at work that day, my phone was exploding from all my friends who attended with the results. So I asked my study group, my friends who have shared so much with me over the last 4 years on best practices, what has worked and even hosted us at their funeral home, to accept this on our behalf. To our team here at Ridley, thank you for all the hard work and dedication to our families and to my friends, thank you for all you have taught me over the years.

Comedy in epitaphs is tricky, even if the deceased had a great sense of humor. Something that seems funny today might not seem quite as witty years later, especially if it was not said or written by them. Cultures and tastes change, and the written word is much different than a riff told in person with the correct context. Keep this in mind when deciding what words to ascribe to them!

This past weekend, Tammy attended St. Dominic’s 3rd Annual Family Dinner & Dance, a beautiful event celebrating community and connection. She felt incredibly fortunate to sit with such a wonderful group of community-minded individuals, some of whom were recognized by Father Terry for their outstanding contributions and service. Evenings like this remind us of the importance of living in service and finding meaningful ways to connect. We encourage you to reach out to your church or local community agencies to see how you can get involved (a link to St. Dominics can be found https://stdominicsmi.archtoronto.org/). Tammy learned that people at her table are hosting a gala to support granting wishes to children with illnesses. You can find more information about their amazing efforts here! https://www.friendshelpingtograntwishes.ca/

Creating a shroud used in green burial means careful selection of the fiber it's made from, how it is grown, milled, woven, dyed, transported, marketed, used, reused, up-cycled, and recycled. This means we typically err on the side of wool, cotton, or h**p.
