Farewell Ceremony
A ceremony held to celebrate a person’s life who is at the end of his or her life (prior to passing away) – whether terminally ill or frail. It could be an informal gathering of family and friends around the person’s chair or bed – or a more structured ceremony at a venue. There is no better time to express love and all those things we should’ve, would’ve, or could’ve said if we found the right time.
Pacemaker Donation Initiative
