DEATH-IVERSARY.

It's a new word, but there's nothing new about it. People have been facing the death-anniversaries of loved ones since the dawn of time. The death anniversary day can be filled with feelings and expectations, making it easy to feel apprehensive and even awkward as the day approaches.

You should know that when it comes to facing a deathiversary, there is a lot of gray area to work with. You’re free to commemorate the day in a special way OR to treat it like it’s nothing special.

Watch the video for lots of creative (and helpful!) ideas.
