A eulogy isn't about finding the perfect words. It's about telling the truth about someone's life.

The funny stories. The quiet moments. The things only you would know.

When we share those memories out loud, something shifts. The person we lost becomes real again, not just to us, but to everyone in the room.

The best eulogies aren't polished. They're personal.

Ask someone in their 60s, 70s, or 80s about their strongest memories, and most of them will come from the same window: ages 15 to 25.

Psychologists call this the "reminiscence bump."

It's why the songs from our teenage years still hit different. Why we remember that first car, that first job, that first heartbreak in vivid detail.

Those years shape who we become. And when we sit with someone near the end of life, those are often the stories they want to tell.

What's your strongest memory from that time?

A will and a pre-plan are not the same thing, and you might need both.

A will covers what happens to your stuff: your home, your accounts, your belongings. It goes into effect after you pass and has to go through probate.

A pre-plan covers what happens to you: your funeral wishes, your service details, and sometimes even the costs. It goes into effect immediately and takes the burden off your family.

One protects your assets. The other protects your loved ones from having to guess.

Questions? We're always here to help.

The first step is often the hardest. Walking through the door. Making the call. Katherine's family was met with kindness and compassion from that very first moment — and that's exactly how it should be.

Thank you, Katherine, for sharing your experience with us.

🌹 Rose: You're a classic. Timeless, elegant, and a little romantic at heart.
🌷 Tulip: You appreciate simplicity and beauty in equal measure.
🌻 Sunflower: You light up a room. Warm, joyful, and impossible to ignore.
🌸 Lily: You bring peace wherever you go. Calm, graceful, and deeply loved.

Flowers have always been a way to say what words can't. What's your favorite?

It's one of the most important conversations you'll ever have, and one of the easiest to put off.

Here are 6 ways to start:
1. Pick a calm, quiet moment (not during a crisis)
2. Start by sharing your own wishes first
3. Ask open-ended questions like "What matters most to you?"
4. Listen without jumping in to fix or solve
5. Write down what you both agree on
6. Revisit it once a year because wishes can change

You don't have to figure it all out in one conversation. You just have to start.

However you celebrate today, with family, with faith, or with quiet reflection, we hope it brings you peace.

Happy Easter from all of us. 🌷
