Traditional vs. Green Burial Alternatives

Traditional funeral etiquette and many 20th-century romantics will tell you that fresh flowers are the perfect objects of condolence. Some will say that a colorful, vibrant bouquet symbolizes how beautiful life is, while others believe that flowers simply signify the brevity of life.

One green alternative to traditional flower arrangements is making a donation to charity in the name of a beloved friend or family member. It's becoming more common and many obituaries even suggest a favored charity to receive gifts in lieu of flowers. Consider a charitable donation to honor your loved one.
