Gifts for the Anniversary of a Death<\/p><\/div>\n

Most people recognize the importance of sending flowers, a gift basket, or a condolence card when a loved one dies. This small gesture helps the family know they are not alone during their difficult time, and also helps you move forward with your own grief.<\/span><\/p>\n

Equally (if not more) important is recognizing the anniversary of a death. Also known as a deathiversary, this date can be a very difficult time for the deceased’s family. It often brings up all the painful memories associated with the loss as well as new feelings of grief—and because the death is not “new,” not everyone remembers to offer their condolences.<\/span><\/p>\n

That is why you might want to mark your calendar and send an acknowledgement or gift at the anniversary of a death. It does not have to be large, but it should be personal. By reaching out and showing that you care, you can make an impact on what will probably be a very difficult day for your friend or relative. <\/span><\/p>\n
