End of Life Celebrations at Keep Tryst Manor
Knoxville, MD, across the Shenandoah River from Harpers Ferry, WV
Honoring a Loved One with a Special End of Life Celebration
End of Life Celebrations are a new kind of memorial that honors the legacy of a loved one who has passed on, and celebrates the life that they led. It tells the story of the person who lived and loved well. It is not a funeral, and is not the traditional way of saying goodbye.
A New Alternative
Traditionally, friends and family gather for a viewing and a funeral, followed by a reception after. The choices and locations are few, and the costs are traditionally very high.
We offer an entirely new way of creating and hosting a celebration of life. Many people do not want a conventional or religious service, and many do not want a viewing after death. Some people are not being traditionally buried, opting instead for cremation. This creates the need for a new way of hosting a memorial outside of a funeral home, but without the extensive planning and work of creating a self-catered and organized event.
End of Life Celebrations offers a way of saying goodbye that allows you to celebrate with your guests, in a natural, beautiful environment. Let us host your event on our historic property near Harpers Ferry, WV, and take care of all of the details, from flowers to catering and music.
