A Memorial Gathering is a time when friends and family come together to pay their respects to a loved one who has passed away. Many families hold a Memorial Gathering in lieu of or in addition to a funeral order of service. You can make the Gathering as religious or non-religious as you like. If the family chooses to have a service at the end of the gathering, a hospice chaplain, priest, or speaker will offer a few words. During a Memorial Gathering, the body is not present. Instead, for friends and family, the cremation urn, certain photographs, and meaningful personal objects are exhibited. If the family desires, there is normally a guestbook or registry for guests to sign. Even if the body isn't there, a Memorial Gathering gives friends and family a sense of closure. This can bring much-needed consolation to survivors, who can then begin to grieve knowing that the person they love is at peace.
