"Tell the Story" What do you want people to know about your loved one? If you’re worried you won’t remember everything, try these practical tips to keep memories fresh: ● Say their name and encourage others to do the same. ● On holidays or other special days, tell and retell stories about the person you’re missing. ● Look through old photos to stir up memories of vacations and events that may have slipped your mind. ● Collect stories from friends and family. Keep them in a designated place or scrapbook. When you have a little unhurried time, find a quiet place and start to write. What did you admire about your loved one? What made you laugh? Does a particular day or season stand out as fun or memorable? Write, draw or save photos of everything you can recall. Do whatever it takes to tell the story of the person you are missing!
