Vital to the community’s role in grief is the provision of personally meaningful and culturally appropriate funeral rituals. These ceremonies help families and communities to establish the reality of the loss, provide opportunity for recollection and spiritual reaffirmation, and offer the opportunity to say goodbye to the physical remains of the deceased. In all of our presentations, public statements, and printed materials, our team is committed to upholding the value of meaningful ceremonies in the face of death, considering them as a vital aspect in reconciling grief.
