It is never easy to have to go through a celebration after you have lost someone. This can be particularly difficult if you have lost a parent and are worried about how to get through Mother\u2019s or Father\u2019s Day. If you have recently lost your father, the first Father\u2019s Day can be challenging and you don\u2019t know what to expect from this or what you can do to honor your dad. For those still mourning, the staff here at Brunswick Memorial Home, our family owned funeral and cremation services in East Brunswick, NJ<\/a> can offer some suggestions to make Father\u2019s Day a bit easier.<\/p>\n

One of the first things you should realize is that ignoring the day is not a healthy option. Many people try to do this, busying themselves with work or errands, but in the end, this can make things more complicated. The right thing to do is to allow yourself to feel whatever it is that you are feeling. This can be grief, anger, and a variety of other emotions. Let them arise naturally.<\/p>\n

A good way of dealing with a celebration like Father\u2019s Day is to plan to do something in your father\u2019s name. This can be tough to plan, but it is something that can give you some peace and perhaps some closure. Think of the things that your father would enjoyed. If he liked to take walks in a particular park, for example, why not do this yourself in his honor? Did he enjoy going out to the ballpark? If he enjoyed a certain movie, you can invite people to watch it with you in his memory. Small things like this can make a huge difference in how you experience Father\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n

Many people think that having fun is not something that isn\u2019t appropriate after a loss of this kind. It \u2018s important to allow yourself to do something that can help you process your grief. Honoring your father\u2019s memory does not only have to be a somber affair. Laughing and dancing and enjoying yourself do not diminish your loss so it\u2019s important to remember that. If he was someone who loved to have fun and who enjoyed a party, it is completely appropriate to do something fun when honoring him.<\/p>\n

Try not to be alone during these kinds of celebrations. It can be tempting to spend the time alone, but it\u2019s better to have people around with whom you can speak if you are going through a rough patch of emotions.<\/p>\n

These suggestions can make Father\u2019s Day a bit easier after the loss of your father. It will never be an easy day, but it does not have to be overwhelming either.
