"It is not the one that has left that is suffering, it is those that are left behind." Many times when a loved one passes and we are left behind we are left with a sense of emptiness and uncertainty of what to do next. How do you move on? How do you let go? A graveside service with a dove release presents a quiet moment of reflection and comfort. It gives closure and a sense of enlightenment that the spirit has lifted and become free.
