Basic Details To Learn When Picking Gifts For Funeral Service

Choose something that reflects your relationship with the deceased and the grieving family and show your support with one of these alternative gifts.

If preparing hot meals or baked goods is not possible, purchase gift cards from their favorite restaurants or pick up prepared food from the grocery store. Take any allergies and preferences into consideration before dropping off the food and leave detailed instructions for reheating and storage.

Planting a tree or setting up a new park bench in honor of the lost loved one provides a lasting memento and ideal gift. Go through your memories for an appropriate location or simply present the grieving family with a certificate detailing the gift and follow up at a later date to confirm the location.

Handling lawn maintenance, house and auto repairs, babysitting, cleaning and many other regular tasks allow the family more time to heal.
