Grief is a journey, and in today’s fast-paced world, many people aren’t given the time or space they need to fully process their loss. The demands of daily life can pull us back into routine far too soon, making it difficult to grieve in a way that fosters healing.
Creating a dedicated space to honor a loved one ensures that their memory remains alive for generations to come. A permanent place of memorialization offers family and friends a meaningful space to reflect, remember, and celebrate the life that was lived.
Grief is a journey, and in today’s fast-paced world, many people aren’t given the time or space they need to fully process their loss. The demands of daily life can pull us back into routine far too soon, making it difficult to grieve in a way that fosters healing.
Some families choose to scatter their loved one’s ashes in a sentimental place, such as the ocean, a forest, or even the skies. While this may feel meaningful at the moment, it often leaves family and friends without a dedicated place to visit and reflect—a place where they can go to feel close to their loved one.
A permanent memorial, whether in a cemetery, mausoleum, memorial garden, or cremation niche, provides a lasting tribute and a physical space to return to time and time again. It becomes a place for quiet moments of remembrance, a focal point for family gatherings, and a sanctuary for honoring the legacy of someone dearly missed.

Sheryl Cousins2024-08-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fairhaven was entrusted with my Grandmother back in 2015 and my Father this past July of 2024. Jason and his team worked me. They helped make sure that I had the death certificate so I could access my Father's funds and advised on the most economical service possible. Everything I asked for and wanted to lay my father to rest was provided with professional and empathic service. I don't have anyone else to lay to rest in Brooklyn but if I did I would highly recommended Fairhaven.

My family had been using Fairhaven for decades and while I’m so sorry for all whom lost loved ones I can’t stand on what’s being posted. Like another poster said it was the grandfather my family has dealt with. I met Jason for the first time two years ago when I lost my mother. While Fairhaven has been like an honorary family member for close to 4 decades, it was my first time being hands on with the protocols of funeral planning. Jason was very patient and informative. Not to mention my mom was a shell of her self when she passed and Fairhaven had her looking like she did in life. They even set her up with an online page that I check into every now and then to write to my mom. That’s how I found these reviews and was shocked by what I read. Again no disrespect to the grieving families, this just wasn’t my experience. Miz Director2020-10-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
