Keep it Simple, Keep it Naive– Gifts for the Bereaved

by Lugan Chik Owner When it comes to buying a gift for the grieving, we are often lost. We don’t know what to buy and what to avoid. It so happens that sometimes what we think is the best thing to gift a grieving person, may not be appropriate for the occasion. It may have been an excellent gift had it not been a mournful time. But it does not mean that you are bad at selecting gifts, it is just that it is better to stick to simple things suited to the occasion.

Personalised gifts
One of the best things to gift is apersonalised handmade memorial such as, a memorial candle, memorial card, memorial collage, memorial album, etc. These gifts not only add that personal touch, but also touch one’s heart due to their simplicity and relevance to the occasion. Moreover, they also reflect your intention of good will and empathy, which is really important to show during such sensitive times. They help comfort the grieving, who feel they are not alone in their times of mourning.

In the memory of
In many parts of the world, including the UK, there is a practice of burying the departed loved one in the garden or in their ancestral land as a sign of love and respect. Young, old, or a loving pet, garden memorial stones are placed at the site of burial in remembrance of the deceased. In some cases, direct burial is not permitted and the body has to be cremated. In such cases, markers to store your loved one’s ashes are also available. These garden memorial markers can be made of different materials and come in various textures and colours, with provision to store the ashes inside it. There are markers that have the provision to store together an urn containing your loved one’s ashes and memories in the form of photographs, toys, etc. You may think of gifting such personalised memorials.

Children memorial
In the case of a baby or child’s burial, memorials made of granites are also available. These children’s granite memorials are durable, resistant to corrosion, strong and can be carved into beautiful monuments or engraved with intricate artworks. When one is suffering from the loss of child, having someone around to create memories of the lost child or taking care of the ceremonial deeds can be very helpful.

Presenting a personalised garden memorial or a child memorial can be a very thoughtful gift in the honour and memory of the lost one.
