You probably know people in lots of different areas of the country and when someone you know passes on, you want to support them, even if you are far away and can’t travel to them.

When someone you know loses a loved one, or a friend of yours passes on, you might want to reach out around the cremation services in West Chester, PA , and support the family in mourning. While you may not be able to make it to every memorial service you are invited to because of the distance between you and that location, you can still support the grieving. There are many different ways you can do that. Here are a few to consider.

 

Send A Card

 

One of the easiest ways to show your support is to simply send a card to your friend or to their family. Let them know you are thinking of them and that you are sorry for their loss. Don’t say too much, like things about your own life or even why you can’t make the services. You can just send a nice card and they will understand you are trying to support their position.

 

Include Money

 

There are plenty of things you can send to a family in mourning and money is easy and very popular. It’s also always well received. You may not know what the family wants or needs so sending money can support them in whatever way they choose. They can use the money for the final services, if they need funding for that. They can also donate the money to a charity in that person’s honor. Or, they can put the money in with other funds for a permanent memorial for their loved one and that is a very nice way to honor them as well.

 

Send Flowers

 

Most memorial services are going to have flowers in the background of the service as a decoration. When you send flowers, you can honor the person who died and support their family at the same time. It’s a nice way to show you care.

 

 

Another thing you could send is a gift basket or care package. Putting together a care package can be fun for you, and it can mean a lot to the family on the other end. Since these are people you know, you can choose things they would appreciate and perhaps things that will help them get through this hard time. You can include gift cards to places you know they like and that might help them to feed their family while they are visiting. You can put in some bubble bath and a good book to help them relax. You might even include a game that the family can use to have a good time together and get away from the plans they have to make for a bit.

 

 

If you know someone who has lost a loved one and is working on cremation services in West Chester, PA, there are things you can send to them and do for them, no matter how far away you might live. If you need help with more ideas and options, contact Donohue Funeral Home.
