About this experience

A farewell for a mother

The death of a mother is the first sorrow you have to grieve without her. She brought everyone to the table, gave the best advice and always had time to listen. She protected those she loved and kept harm away. She was the first person you told important news and often the only opinion that mattered when a difficult decision had to be made. She was a mother through and through, not only to her own children. If you came to her feeling troubled, you left feeling better. Her boundless love asked for nothing in return, and her warmth made any place feel like home. Saying goodbye to such a person can make grief feel almost unbearable, while creating a strong wish to honour the place she held in your life. If grief has left you feeling unable to act, if you are unsure how to reflect what made her so special, or if you need support with the formal farewell, we can help. We understand how profoundly a loss like this can affect a family, and how difficult it can be to manage practical details or think of a fitting way to pay tribute. We have therefore developed a concept that guides grieving families, brings them together, gathers stories, experiences and memories of the person they love, and shapes them into a beautiful and memorable ceremony. There are many possibilities. Please contact us at any time for personal advice if this is the kind of support you need.
