🌏 The view from above, during that tragic moment frozen in time.

🕯 On this solemn day, we pause to honor the memory of all those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and to stand with the families, friends, and communities forever changed by that tragedy.

At Celestis, we are reminded of the resilience of the human spirit... of our shared capacity for remembrance, unity, and hope.

🌇 May we never forget.

Thank you for giving a bark-out to comfort dogs, American Funeral Director! Our Neptune Society team just celebrated the first birthday of their pup, Neptune, who has quickly developed a compassionate understanding of how to be there for people in mourning. As we know, sometimes a soft paw says more than words.🐾❤️

Neptune Fort Lauderdale Office Coordinator Shaun Halladey:
"This morning I had to run down to the Broward County Health Department to drop off death certificates, and brought some swag and cookies for the staff.
This lovely lady in the picture is Sabrina, who I deal with on a daily basis. It has been a crazy time for the state of Florida regarding the EDRS (Electronic Death Registration System) since the outage a couple of weeks ago, and we just wanted to drop off a little something to say thank you to their team for helping us out."

An important reminder of how much better families and the community are served when we work together!
