Sharing Light in grief
Loss is a part of life, and saying goodbye to a loved one is one of the hardest obstacles we all face.
Due to social and cultural pressures, we are often not taught how to stand with someone in their grief. How do we honor and remember their loved one and also show our support the person who is grieving?
Instead of worrying about the just-right thing to say or do at the just-right time, we encourage others to take the time to acknowledge someone’s loss. We want to make sending a heartfelt gift after a loss as easy as possible.
Memory Flame candle co
At the end of 2020 I had to say goodbye to my young dog, Olive. She had my whole heart and I was absolutely devastated by her untimely death. As I was struggling to work through my grief, I stumbled on the use of remembrance candles to honor the life of a loved one and process feelings of grief. I found so much comfort in lighting my candle whenever I felt sad or was missing her.
As a pet sitter, I gifted our clients with remembrance candles after their losses. They told us of their feelings of being sincerely cared for in their darkest days. They felt how much we truly cared. I knew I needed to share these heartfelt gifts with others who cared for their clients and loved ones like we do, and Memory Flame Candle Company was born.

sharing light with heartfelt gifts
We need to be seen, to have our grief witnessed and held space for. It can be hard to know what to do or say when someone we love and care for experiences a loss. However, many people say that not hearing from others can make grieving harder. Even a small gesture to acknowledge someone’s pain and loss can mean the most.
Instead of worrying about the just-right thing to say or do at the just-right time, we want to encourage others to simply go out of their way to acknowledge someone’s loss.

A note from our founder
Humans are social beings and we are not designed to go through rainy days alone. All of us need the support of others at differing points in life. Candles have long been symbols of hope, guidance, and comfort. I hope that Memory Flame candles bring comfort to all those who see their flickering flame.
I believe we can show our care and support in simple, thoughtful ways. There is perhaps no time we need this more than when we lose someone special. I hope these candles can be a clear representation of your care, empathy, and concern for those you care about in life and business.
