This week, our staff will be here to give out our annual glass angel holiday keepsakes. Letters go out to every family who entrusted services of their loved ones to us over the year. This way, there is a memorial at home for the first year after that loss.

Please remember we will be in office and available from 9a to 4p this week, but still serving those in need, and holding services.

Additional angels can be ordered by calling our office at 607 739 4801.

Peace in the season to all our families.

Today, we recognize National Grief Awareness Day. Established to curtail the stigma of grief, which effects many individuals and families in different ways and varying severity, it is also a day to educate ourselves on ways that we can approach our grief or the grief of friends or loved ones.

Our directors meet with those who are on a journey, some starting, some changing, some ongoing in powerful grief and loss. In addition to resources provided to our website, please know there are many local and national resources, outside of your own community groups or church fellowship.

Please consider our staff and family as an option to find answers if there is any grief, suffering, or loss you are experiencing.

We are here for all those in need, and willing to find a solution or a support network if we do not already have a way to provide help.

You may see events like the upcoming Q& A at the Clemens Center which are very helpful for end of life planning. Funeral arrangements always part of that conversation. New York allows for protected, interest bearing accounts in your name only for future funeral expenses. When discussing affairs and estates in the future, reach out to a funeral director to get information about how you can make your wishes known, or plan for a family member. Most importantly, you can learn the legal protections and personal options afforded to you.
