The best tips that I was told, was to do something that the person who loved who’s passed loved. I was away from home when my grandmother passed away and wasn’t able to come back to her funeral. She love, yellow roses, she loved to travel, and she loved fish. So on the day of her service, I got three yellow roses one for each of my sisters, and I, threw it into the ocean, and then went and had fish and chips. So sorry for your loss, sending love.💛

I am confused are you trying to misinform people that “mormons” don’t hold funerals for their family members like others do, that they don’t have a celebration of life and share and meal and memories after a funeral? That “mormons” don’t have baby showers to welcome a new baby into the world or bridal showers to celebrate a wedding like other people? That “Mormons” don’t connect with others and have get togethers and parties for graduation, birthdays, retirements, reunions, etc.

I’m sorry for your loss. I can offer some of our rituals from Bakans. We prepare beloved food (the food that was favorite to our loved one or he/she prepared it often, from scratch), we make small gathering of close family and celebrate life throug food.

what if you planted something special in your yard for her. Maybe a tree or bush or flower that will grow and allow you to remember her for years to come?

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve lost your grandma! It’s been different for each of my family mbrs we’ve lost because our family doesn’t seem to do “they just got old and died” - we do traumatic. (It’s sad and tragic, and kind of like something out of a story - but it’s my reality). ♥️

The most memorable service I attended was a celebration of life for my cousin. We did an art project where we each drilled and placed marbles in a large wooden display so they'd light up when the sun shone through representing all the lives they touched. Watched a slide show, ate, drank and shared memories.

I’m so sorry for your loss, one thing my family always does is go through old photos and make collages for funerals, or home videos and watch them all together, remeber the good times through telling stories all together, grief doesn’t have a timeline so feel when you feel!!

Pictures. Drag them out. Sit with loved ones and just talk and look at the pictures and laugh about the funny memories and cry. And eat. And just be with the people who share that love of that person.

Mormon funeral make me so sad now. It’s either about A) how active they were in church or B) how inactive they were but they will have a chance to accept Jesus in the next life. And that’s assuming they talk about the person who passed at all and not just a script about the plan of salvation

I’ve collected favorite recepies for different occasions so that my grief and relationships to holidays will change but the taste of having my loved one near does not.

The Jewish practice of sitting shiva has really helped me. I have done it with my community when foster kids have left and when friends have gone through infertility.

The thing that helped me grieve when losing grandparents was small groups of people that loved them 5-10 sharing stories I learned about other peoples perspectives on them and got to laugh.

My Mexican step dad says for them the grill/have a party at the burial site. He was honestly pretty upset that we couldn’t do that when my grandmother died. He loved her so much. My family does the same but at someone’s home. Good, booze, laughs/memories

Mormon funerals and all the spiritual bypassing and toxic positivity and placation that goes on is the worst. I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you can find special ways to mourn with people in your life who share your grief. ❤️

On the anniversary of the death or on their birthday, eat all of their favorite foods and do an activity as a family that they enjoyed in their honor.

The first time I learned about the Jewish tradition of sitting Shiva, I cried. (Shout out Grey's Anatomy!) Also people in the Jewish faith say "may their memory be a blessing" and that punched me right in the tear ducts. I wish for you that your grandma's memory is a blessing to you.

Day of the dead has always been such a beautiful ritual to me. Most gave a spot in their house to honor their loved ones all year. I’ve even seen it encouraged across “cultural” lines. I bet you and your kids would love it.

My grandmother has gotten all her grandchildren an ornament every Christmas. My cousin died in 2021 and she still gets an ornament for him but with a cardinal on it and when any of us see a cardinal she says that’s Scott! If there’s anything that you associate with her maybe looking out for that or honoring her with things related to that? Sending you love ❤️

When my grandma passed in 2020 I wrote a letter to her expressing all my favorite memories. I also will just sit and cry for them. For me. For the others… like ugly cry. It’s a wild ride, grief. Sending you love, lady. I’ve experienced tremendous loss through many phases of life. I’m always around🫶🏼 ✨music helps too.

Also I’m sorry to hear you’ve lost your grandma. I LOVED my grandmother. Grief is like an organ. It’s apart of you now. How about an ofrenda? Create an alter of her things or your things together and visit it daily. This is yours now. Your grief is sacred and beautiful.

Growing up my ward always showed out for funerals and opened the cultural hall for visiting afterwards. I’m ex Mormon too, have been since 16. Since leaving we’ve celebrated a loved one passing by doing balloon releases (write a message on it first), ordered remembrance t-shirts, create a FB page to give a platform for everyone to share memories/photos/videos (we go live every year on their birthday or anniversary), we eat there favorite treats and my favorite is painting rocks and hiding them through the community with the FB page hashtag on the back so people who find the rock log it and find out about your loved one and it’s like the love one is still spreading joy around

My dad did not have a funeral because he donated his body to science. There was a church service but the best thing was when we all got together after at his house and told stories. Stories of him but then just stories of our(his children) lives.
