Memorials are important not only to remember our loved ones who have passed on, but are also important for those who are left behind.
A memorial honors and commemorates the life of those who have died. Memorials are an age-old tradition that has long provided people with a place to focus their grief. Memories of a loved one are precious, and memorials are a practical way of perpetuating these memories, and providing a sense of place and a tangible record for family, friends, and generations yet to come.
