I found an old birthday card of my husbands when his mom passed. I got a heart shaped key ring that had “lots of love, mom x” in her hand writing.
When my step daughter’s mom died I purchased a tree through trees for a change. They plant trees in honor of a loved one in areas affected by wildfires. They send you a certificate, and location of where your tree was planted. So we can go for a road trip and visit. This way her mother’s memory will be here long after we are gone. My step daughter is big on the environment so this was something she absolutely cherished.

My husband is a walk type of quality time and it can be so refreshing and help relax and clear the mind a bit.
