Memorial Tokens

Experiencing the loss of a loved one is something that we will all experience at some point in our lives.  There are many factors that will determine the way that loss will affect us; what stage of life we are in, what our relationship was like with that person at the time of their death, was the death expected or sudden, plus many many more.

As a way of coping with the loss of a loved one we will often find ourselves treasuring items that belonged to them. Other times we may not have access to said items simply due to logistics of location or relationships.  If you find yourself in the position of not being able to obtain that item you would like in order to help you remember them by, we encourage you to create your own.

Memorial tokens, as we like to call them, do not have to be something that your loved one physically owned, but rather something that reminds you of them. Below are a few items we have found that are beautiful memorial tokens that you can create at home. (contains links to external websites)

Keepsake Pillow
Flowers in a Jar
Heart Shaped Dried Roses
Picture Frame Wreath
Pendant Necklace
Memorial Bear
Sound Wave Art

    Understanding What You’re Feeling

    Grief is a normal reaction to the loss of a loved one. It can also be a reaction to the loss of relationships, physical ability, opportunities or future hopes and dreams.

    Bereavement is the state of having suffered the loss of a loved one. It is the time after a loss during which grief is experienced and mourning occurs.

    Mourning is the external expression of grief. It includes rituals that mark someone’s death, such as funerals, wakes or memorial services. Mourning is strongly influenced by a person’s spiritual and cultural beliefs and practices.

We always provide a positive space to our clients, volunteers, and staff.

      Land Acknowledgement

      We would like to acknowledge that the land which we are gathered on today is the traditional territory of the Anishinaabek Nation; specifically, the Chippewa Tri – Council comprised of the Chippewas of Beausoleil, Rama and Georgina Island First Nations and more recently the Mississaugas of the Credit River First Nation.

      Ontario is covered by 46 treaties and other agreements and is home to many Indigenous Nations from across Turtle Island, including the Inuit and the Métis. These treaties and other agreements, including the One Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, are agreements to peaceably share and care for the land and its resources. Other Indigenous Nations, Europeans, and newcomers were invited into this covenant in the spirit of respect, peace, and friendship.

      Most of us have come here as settlers, immigrants, or newcomers in this generation or generations past.

      We are all Treaty people.  Every day we are mindful of broken covenants, and we strive to make this right. We commit to collaborating based on the foundational assumption that Indigenous Peoples have the power, strength, and competency to develop culturally specific strategies for their communities.  We are dedicated to honouring Indigenous self-determination, history, and culture, and are committed to moving forward in the spirit of reconciliation and respect with all First Nation, Métis and Inuit people.
