Gifts in Memory
Honouring a Life. Continuing a Legacy.
Losing someone you love is never easy - but remembering them in a way that reflects their kindness, compassion, and values can be a powerful source of comfort.
Giving in memory is a deeply personal way to celebrate a life while supporting the work of Myrtle House - helping others in their time of need, just as your loved one might have done.
Whether it’s through a one-time donation, a funeral collection, or a lasting legacy, your gift will help provide food, friendship, and hope to local people facing hardship.
