Beverage of Choice: Meiomi Pinot Noir Red Wine

It all depends on what the bereaved needs to feel comforted and to memorialize the life of their loved one who has died. And also what you, as a visitor, might need to survive seeing people you’d really rather not. But a rich red that pairs well with pizza and other comfort foods might help.

Gala Gourmet

Food can be the best way to communicate that you care and want to comfort the bereaved. So go ahead and splurge on a sampler of dried fruits and nuts. Nutritious and delectable enough to keep you going through all those awkward exchanges at the snack table. Best of all? It’s kosher certified.
