The holidays bring moments filled with warmth—family, traditions, and foods that carry memories through generations. But when someone we love is missing, even joyful celebrations can feel incomplete. For many, that “empty chair” at the table is a powerful reminder of loss.

Together, we’ll share stories, honor memories, and explore meaningful ways to keep loved ones close during the holidays.
