It’s been said, “Every time you buy from a small business, a real person does a happy dance.”

Show your support in the community by patronizing locally-owned “mom & pop” shops: restaurants and small businesses. Some may have been passed down from generation to generation, carrying on their legacy. Feel good that your business is meaningful to an actual person in your community, and not just a number on a corporate spreadsheet.

In 2008, Congress declared March 11 as National Funeral Director and Mortician Recognition Day. Let’s take a moment to recognize the funeral directors at Menke Funeral & Cremation Center – Kelly Browder, Rob Zimmerman and David Hinton – and thank them for the hard work that they do to assist families in the loss of a loved one. They provide bereavement and consolation services for the living, in addition to making arrangements for the cremation, burial, and memorial services for the deceased. Taking great pride in caring for families in their time of need, their unwavering commitment is to provide you with a beautiful, lasting tribute to your loved one.

Daylight Saving Time begins March 8. Fall back. Spring ahead.

While Arizona doesn’t observe Daylight Saving Time by changing the clocks, it still is a good thing to know in case you are calling outside of the state. If you’re trying to reach someone in the Midwest during business hours, know that they will be 2 hours ahead of us (instead of one). That means if they close at 5 p.m., you’d need to call before 3 p.m. AZ time. It’s a 3-hour difference for Eastern time.

On Your Grief Journey ~ Connecting with Nature

Nature has a profound ability to soothe the soul and offer perspective during times of sorrow. Spend time outdoors. Seek natural symbols. Engage in nature-based practices. Find solace in the beauty that surrounds you, knowing that nature is always there to offer healing and renewal.

~ Menke Community Corner ~

Menke Funeral Director Rob Zimmerman recently teed up for a good cause – a fundraising golf tournament for the Liberty High School baseball team. This is the fourth year Menke Funeral & Cremation Center has been a sponsor of this event.

Pictured (l-r) is the team of Doug Weaver, Rob Zimmerman, Carlos Leyva and Jim Bowie. Their team placed fourth out of 23 teams with a score of 62. Not bad, fellas!

Mardi Gras (also known as Fat Tuesday or Shove Tuesday) is the last day before Ash Wednesday which marks the beginning of the Christian Lenten season. Lent is typically a time of fasting, repentance and almsgiving.

So Mardi Gras is a big party to indulge! And no one throws a Mardi Gras party, called Carnival, like the Big Easy. In New Orleans, you’ll find parades, bead throwing, much revelry, and King Cake.

King Cake is a sweet pastry decorated in the Mardi Gras colors of purple, green and gold with an extra special surprise inside! Custom has it, whoever gets the slice of pastry containing the hidden plastic baby Jesus has to buy the King Cake the next year.
