Donation in Bereavement

Malawi Kids
 When a loved one leaves, it is a painful loss for us. In the time of mourning, we often wish to do something that would have been in the deceased's mind and will last beyond their death. Therefore, many ask for a funeral donation be made in memory of the deceased person instead of flowers or wreaths.

In the funeral announcement you can refer to this wish. If you want to raise donations for World Emergency Relief via In Lieu Of Gifts, inform the Undertaker.		  

The funeral home can indicate your wish in the obituary notice with the following information:

Instead of flowers and wreaths we ask for a donation in memory of the deceased:
