These memorial cards were created out of our own loss. A young girl named Maureen Higgins, beloved daughter and sister of the founders, Kathy and Kerry, was diagnosed with cancer in October of 2002 at the age of 18. She passed away in March of 2003, and these remembrance cards were something that family members created for her funeral. We wanted a way to personalize Maureen's memory for everyone that attended the funeral. Kerry came up with the idea of a memorial card with Maureen's picture on it and her favorite saying which was "Happy Day" added to it. There were a total of 19 different cards printed for the funeral. Each card had Maureen's picture on it along with a quote or song lyric that spoke to us about Maureen's unique personality. We had cards about her funny side, her artistic side, her VERY loving side and some with quotes about missing a loved one. Each card was unique in that it touched each person differently depending on how they interacted with Maureen. Each person could pick a card that spoke to their heart. We asked the funeral director to display the cards during viewing hours. |
The cards became a big hit, and we found everyone going around reading all the cards to find the one that best suited their memory of Maureen. Everyone remarked about how the cards could give them a special memory of Maureen that they could carry around with them. They loved the idea of the convenient business card size and that Maureen's picture was on it. These cards gave us a chance to let Maureen's wonderful personality shine through one last time. After a few years of talking about the cards, it was finally the right time to begin this new project. Kerry and Kathy work side by side to provide the cards to help families like theirs cope with the loss by celebrating the unique personality of their own special someone. They hope they help those families to find solace and hope, as well as the knowledge that their contribution to cancer research will do some good for other families. |
