The little moments like homemade lunches, school events, Friday night football games, and after-school conversations often become the memories we treasure most.

Do you know the difference between a eulogy and an elegy?

A eulogy is a speech or piece of writing that praises someone or something highly, typically someone who just died.

An elegy is a poem of serious reflection, typically a lament for the deceased.

Have you ever heard either of these at a service?

Vault or grave liner?

While they're often confused, there is a difference. Most cemeteries require one to help prevent the ground from settling and keep the cemetery looking its best.

Requirements vary by cemetery, so we're always happy to answer your questions.

Talking to kids about grief isn’t easy, but it matters.
Here are some quick dos and don’ts that can help when discussing loss with children:

DO:
- Go first.
- Tell the truth about how you feel.
- Remember that each child is different.
- Be patient.

DON'T:
- Don't say, "don't feel sad" or "don't feel scared."
- Don't compare their lives or situations to others in the world.
- Don't act strong for your children.

Do all loved ones have to be embalmed?

The short answer is no.

Embalming is often recommended for public visitations or certain types of transportation, but it isn't required for every funeral. The best choice depends on your family's wishes and the type of service you choose.

The dinner table is about so much more than a meal.

It's where stories are shared, laughter fills the room, and memories are made. When someone we love is gone, it's often one of the places where their absence is felt the most.

What are your favorite dinner table memories?
