Father’s Day can feel especially difficult when you’re grieving the loss of a father or father figure. If this day feels heavy, here are a few gentle ways to care for yourself:

• Share memories with loved ones.
Talking about favorite stories or traditions can help keep their memory close.

• Honor them in a meaningful way.
Visit a special place, cook their favorite meal, or continue a tradition they loved.

• Give yourself permission to feel.
There’s no “right” way to experience grief on Father’s Day.

• Reach out for support if needed.
Spending time with supportive friends or family can bring comfort during difficult moments.

Sometimes circumstances make it difficult to attend a funeral or memorial service in person, but there are still meaningful ways to offer support and care from afar.

A thoughtful note, attending virtually, sending flowers, or simply checking in afterward can bring comfort during a difficult time. Often, it’s the small acts of kindness that leave the biggest impact.

A favorite recipe, a summer tradition, a handwritten note, sometimes the smallest things can hold the biggest memories.

The people we love often stay close to us through the traditions, stories, and moments we continue to carry forward.

What’s one way you honor or remember a loved one?

We pause to remember the lives forever changed on D-Day.

Preplanning allows you to make decisions on your own terms and can bring clarity and peace of mind to the people you love most.
