Beginnings

When losing a loved one, sometimes we are so focused on the door that has closed that we do not realize a new door has opened. It is a difficult period in our lives. New routines need to be established. New relationships may need to be forged. Maybe there is very little free time, with the added new responsibilities, or maybe there is a lot of free time, because of the loss of a close companion.

It’s important to acknowledge the past and the specialness of the relationship you shared with your beloved. Devote 10 or 15 minutes each day, perhaps first thing in the morning, to their memory. Dedicating yourself this way gives you the rest of the day to focus on the present.

Beginning to understand that life will be different is the starting point. Choosing a day to begin, whether it’s today, tomorrow or some other appropriate time, is the next step. What is it you want to do? What will bring happiness, joy and meaning into your life?

With the opening of new doors, new relationships, new experiences and new joys may be found. Our dearly departed would have wanted this and more for us.

A Homage to the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie

The discovery of a murdered passenger aboard the Orient Express as it plows through snow-covered terrain toward Istanbul; Miss Marple stumbling across a body in the library; the shocking revelation that the narrator is the killer. Sound familiar?

These are only a few snippets from the many shocking twists penned by English author Agatha Christie. With over two billion copies of her novels sold, Christie continues to hold the record for the bestselling and most translated author of all time.

A writer during the Golden Age of Detective Fiction, Christie has long been called the Queen of Crime, a nickname now trademarked by her estate. In 1955, she was the first recipient of the Mystery Writers of America’s Grand Master Award, and in 1971, Queen Elizabeth made her a dame for her contributions to the literature world.

Five decades after her death, Christie remains an influential figure. Her 66 detective novels and countless short stories continue to serve as inspiration for films, TV and video games, while her play, ‘The Mousetrap’, which has been performed in the West End of London since 1952, is the world’s longest running play.

So, in honour of her death 50 years ago today on January 12, 1976, why not curl up with one of her novels, make friends with Hercule Poirot or Miss Marple and enjoy unravelling one of the many clever mysteries that have entertained readers for decades?

What Can Be

It’s about possibilities. The funeral profession has been adapting to the changing needs of our society for quite some time now. Though the traditional funeral is often still chosen by many, there are many more options for today’s families to choose from.

As funeral directors we regularly work with families who wish to shine the light on a beloved’s story in an original or meaningful way. We receive unique requests and incorporate these into the overall funeral plan.

A trucker dies and their friends want to include a convoy as part of the service. An artist has their work displayed during the wake. A cook includes some of their favourite dishes at the reception. These are all examples of the types of special requests we receive from families.

It’s important to remember that there are many, many ways to honour and remember a beloved.
We’ll help you create a service that truly shows how special they were. Talk with us to find out about possibilities and what can be.

Taking a Few Minutes to Express Condolences

Following the death of a loved one, surviving family members typically notify those who are “near and dear” to them about their loss. Past customs included phone calls and newspaper obituaries. In today’s world, newspapers are read less often and phone calls occur less frequently.

This results in the news of a death becoming a one-way conversation. A death notice is shared via email or social media and unless there is a reply, the family is unsure who has seen the notice and who is supporting them as they mourn.

Taking the time to leave an online condolence on either the funeral home’s website or through social media is becoming much more commonplace as the ways we communicate in the twenty-first century evolve.

It only takes a few minutes to acknowledge and share in their grief. Small gestures can be a great source of comfort. If you wish to express condolences in a more traditional way, a sympathy card or a phone call are also sure to be welcomed. When you see a death notice or an obituary, view it as an invitation from the family to share in their grief.
