Traditions after loosing a Loved One
Hi Everyone,
I just read this from my friend Anita Larson who is a Funeral Celebrant overseas. I liked it so much I wanted to share it. She wrote an article about how keeping traditions or making new ones after the death of a loved one is helpful.
Hope you like this story:
Christmas
"My brother travelled the world and left us too soon. He collected Snow Globes from every destination and would often bring one back for Mom & Dad. We are continuing the tradition by purchasing a Snow Globe wherever our travels take us this year. His collection of over 100 Snow Globes is on display at our parent’s home along with a map with pushpins marking every place he visited. We will each take turns shaking the Snow Globes while listening to his favourite Country Christmas songs."
Do you have any traditions you keep or have started?
Would love to hear about what you do.
As we head into 2019, may we find Peace, Love, Grace and Kindness.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

Mitre 10 Park Hawke's Bay survey
A short Mitre 10 Park Hawke's Bay survey is open for people who don’t currently use the park. Your input, added to info from park users, will help shape a new master plan being prepared by the sports park management team that will (amongst other things) make the park more welcoming, accessible, and inclusive for all. Let them know what you think!
Topics include:
🏀 Awareness: Are you aware of the activities offered?
🏉 Perception: Do you feel the park is for everyone?
🏏 Access: Are there barriers keeping you from visiting?
🗓️ Survey closes 5pm, Sunday 1 December, 2024.
