Memorializing A Loved One With Time Rather Than Money
Posted By admin on October 21, 2009
During the United States’ grim economic times, families have had to pinch pennies in many areas of their lives, especially when it comes to remembering a loved one that has passed. Funerals, like many other highlights in a person’s life, can cost families thousands of dollars. In reality, one does not need to spend a lot of money to memorialize and remember a loved one who is no longer with us. There are many options families can choose from to memorialize one who has passed that require little or no money.
Online Memorial Sites
Online memorial services cost little to no money. On these types of sites, one can make a personalized tribute to a loved one that can be visited forever. Pictures can be uploaded to the site as well as videos and family trees. Often times, people that visit the online memorial pages can add their own memories of the person being remembered, light virtual candles, and upload their own pictures with easy-to-use online tools.
Plant a Tree
Plant a tree in memory of a loved one. Tree planting will not only benefit the people that planted it, but will also benefit future generations with an everlasting memory that is graceful and dignified. Most tree planting programs are not overly expensive and a portion of the fees often go toward a worthy cause.
