A Shared

Meal

In many cultures, tradition calls for moments to take a meal together after the funeral. In one region of Spain, a special bread is baked for the wake. In this country, the Amish bake “funeral pies” made with raisins. Among Jewish families, the first meal after a funeral is called “the meal of condolence,” in which hard-boiled eggs and other round foods are served in recognition of life’s continuity. Thus, it is that the universality of the death experience evokes an equally universal response. A communal meal after the funeral is symbolic of the need to replenish ourselves and carry on with the business of living. In the process, we bring comfort to one another. Communal celebrations and the sharing of food make enduring a death that much easier.

Our facilities are welcoming to mourners - peaceful, wellappointed, and easily adaptable to different preferences. For a tour call 347-3431. “Bread is the staff of life. ”
