In today’s world of economic hardships, financial turmoil, increasing costs, and excessive expenses, not everyone is able to purchase life insurance or save money for their final arrangements. According to most, the only thing that is worse than experiencing a lifetime of money troubles is passing away with the inability to cover the “final” bill – dying broke and leaving that responsibility on your loved ones. In many instances, those loved ones that are left behind are unable to afford a traditional service that includes a beautiful casket, a moving memorial service, and a burial in a popular cemetery that includes a magnificent headstone. While it is true that mostly all loved ones want to see their loved ones off with these types of amenities, most have to turn to cremation because it is significantly cheaper than burial. Unfortunately, most that opt for cremation are unable to afford any additional services – such as a memorial service. This leaves grieving loved ones never receiving any type of closure; however, in recent years, it has been determined that a memorial establishes meaning for the mourner who has a loved one that has been cremated. Tearcatcher.com now offers an assortment of memorials that will help you move past your loss.
Losing a Loved One
When a loved one dies, the immensity of the fact that you are still alive actually strikes at your core. The focus that you have quickly transitions between the grief that you are experiencing and the life of the person that you have lost. You often find yourself overwhelmed by the sorrow of the loss that you have suffered. Then, you find yourself reviewing the joy, the absolute beauty, and the richness that your loved one brought to your world and the world that surrounds you. You are mourning. You are suffering from the deepest and most overwhelming pain imaginable; yet, you long to celebrate the life of your loved one’s time in the world and to experience some sense of closure. If your loved one has been cremated, one of the best ways to redirect the grief that you are experiencing is to create a memorial that celebrates the life of your loved one and propels the memory of that life into the future for other generations to celebrate.
Obtaining a Memorial Stone
Memorial stones are often referred to as “Keepstones”. These beautiful pieces are crafted from the highest quality natural stone. At Tearcatcher.com, there are three different types of stones that may be chosen – the dolomitic, the river rock, and the Pennsylvania Flagstone. You may choose a memorial that simply outlines a name or a stone that looks much like a tombstone at a cemetery – the choice is yours! Once you choose the stone, you simply customize it to memorialize your loved one. You may then place the memorial in your home, outside of your home, or, in a garden. Not only will this allow you to keep the memories of your loved one alive, it will provide you with the closure that you need if you have lost a loved one that has had to be cremated due to financial reasons.
