Delaying or skipping services entirely can leave lasting emotional scars—especially for the youngest among us. One funeral director's personal story reminds us why honoring a life through ceremony still matters. Read this month's Memorialization column - Link in comments.

Today, on International Self-Care Day (July 24), we at Gillette Memorial Chapel and Walker Funeral Home want to remind you that caring for yourself is as vital as remembering those you love. Grief can feel overwhelming, and your heart and mind deserve kindness and rest as you navigate each day’s challenges.

Taking gentle moments for yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential. When loss is heavy, self-care helps renew your strength, soothe your spirit, and honor the memory of the person you miss.

Here are a few simple ways to weave self-care into your journey:

• Spend time in nature. A quiet walk around a favorite park, sitting under a tree, or simply feeling the sun on your face can bring unexpected comfort.
• Practice mindful breathing or meditation. Even five deep, slow breaths can calm anxiety and ground you in the present moment.
• Write or draw your thoughts. Journaling feelings or creating a small memorial sketch helps you express emotions that might feel too big to speak.
• Connect with someone you trust. A phone call, video chat, or coffee date with a friend, family member, or support group reminds you that you’re not alone.
• Honor your loved one in small rituals. Light a candle, play their favorite song, or bake a recipe you shared—all ways to hold their spirit close while nurturing your own heart.
• Seek professional support. Talking with a counselor, chaplain, or grief support specialist offers a dedicated space to explore your feelings and learn coping tools.

Be gentle with yourself today and every day. Grief isn’t a path you walk alone—our team at Gillette Memorial Chapel and Walker Funeral Home is here to listen, to hold space, and to guide you toward healing. If you need someone to talk with or assistance planning a remembrance, please reach out. You deserve comfort, compassion, and care.

With warmth and understanding,
Gillette Memorial Chapel & Walker Funeral Home

What an incredible evening at Walker Funeral Home last Friday! Our second annual Wine, Cheese, and Art…If You Please art show was a shining success thanks to the dedication of so many talented individuals and the warmth of our community. Your presence turned our vision into a celebration of creativity and connection.

We were honored to feature eight amazing artists whose works inspired conversation and wonder. A special thank you to our two skilled musicians for providing the perfect soundtrack and to Old Chicago for catering a delightful array of food and beverages with such professionalism and care.

Watching neighbors, friends, and families come together in support of local art truly reminded us why we do what we do. We already can’t wait to welcome you all again next year for another unforgettable evening.

Warmest regards,

Gillette Memorial Chapel & Walker Funeral Home Team
