There is no right or wrong way to tell your loved one’s story.
Many people choose to share a favourite memory, what made the person special, or why they have chosen to support Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland in their memory.
You can keep it simple: “We’re creating this page to honour the life of [Name] and support families with ill or injured children. Thank you for helping us celebrate their memory and create a lasting impact.”
The most meaningful messages are often the most personal.
If your family would rather memorial donations in lieu of flowers, you can include a short message in a funeral notice, memorial service program, or personal invitation.
For example: “In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in memory of [Name] to Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland. Your support will help families stay close to their child during medical treatment.”
You can also create a in memory page and share the link with family and friends, making it easy for people to donate and leave messages of remembrance.
The heart of Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland lives in the stories of the families, volunteers, and supporters we walk alongside.
