“But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all your stories is always your mother's story, because hers is where yours begin.”
- Mitch Albom, For One More Day
Along with the season of spring, comes the joyous occasion of Mother’s Day. A day to celebrate the incredible women who have filled our lives with pure love and happiness.
This day can bring bittersweet memories for those who have lost their mothers. Losing a mother is one of the deepest sorrows a heart can ever know. Even though it breaks us at the time, it takes us years to realize that even though she’s no longer physically present amongst us, a part of her exists within us, wherever we go, in our hearts forever. All the moments shared are like precious threads that has woven our lives into something incredibly beautiful. As Mother’s Day approaches, we look for gifts that can hold on to those memories for us. Something simple, beautiful, unique, and timeless.
Here are Five Memorial Gift Ideas to remember your mother on this special day. These aren’t just objects; these are symbols of love we still feel. When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone.

Mourning is a part of loss, and even when we're prepared for the loss, there's no way to predict how we'll mourn. Some people are resilient, while others will get lost in a sea of depression and grief when mourning. Colors represent mourning across the world. Just as you wear certain colors during a funeral, many choose certain cremation jewelry or pendants for ashes based on the colors of mourning.
