Funerals Are an Opportunity for the Living

Funerals and memorial services provide the living with a unique opportunity to begin the process of acceptance with the loss of a loved one.  Besides, the time honored tradition of honoring the passing of a loved one, the funeral service provides an opportunity for family and friends to appreciate the loved one as well as express in some way a sense of loss and grief.  It's a basic psychological principle that underscores such national days of observance as Veterans' Day and Memorial Day.  At Hubbell Funeral Home, we recognize the importance of such an event and work with families to make the service as memorable and personal as possible. 

On many occasions, I've witnessed friends and family learn something new and unique about their loved one.  For others, such services provide a time to reflect on their own lives and perhaps re-dedicate themselves to a value or a way of life embraced by the deceased.  Life is a gift that is precious. The passing of a life should be treated with the dignity, respect, and honor of that gift.
