Embracing The Teardrops

"Embracing the Teardrops empowers our clients with the knowledge, resources and guidance necessary to develop a sound plan for one of life’s certainties - death." - Patricia Myers, Founder

Our Service:

Embracing the Teardrops is the premiere comprehensive strategic planning firm specializing in end-of-life decisions. Embracing the Teardrops was created by funeral director Patricia Myers to support the needs of individuals who understand and accept the fact that they are mortal. Our goal as a company is to reduce the confusion associated with the process of protecting our family, preserving our assets and planning our final resting place. As morbid as mortality may seem, the truth is that death is certain. The reality of death is something that is universal; however, the process of preparing for it is something that is rarely done.

Patrucia Myers, Founder, Embracing The Teardrops

About Us:

Meet Our Founder, Your Compassionate Funeral Director:

Patricia Myers, a graduate of the American Academy McAllister Institute of Funeral Services with over twenty-five years of dedicated service, life experiences, and continuing education all playing a vital role in helping people to deal with the process of death and transition.

Like many of her clients, she has experienced death in her immediate family. Yet despite her exposure to death on a daily basis, it was still difficult to deal with. She began to realize that no one wants to plan for the inevitable, despite the fact its an eventuality.

Having seen the burden of stress and fear upon grieving family members, Ms. Myers has now made it her mission to empower baby boomers and all ages to take control to seek information so often hidden in their loved ones “treasure boxes.”

It is time to take control and pry open the mystery treasure box and begin to share relevant information among family members and or trusted friend (s).

It is time to unlock, release and share the valuables in these hidden treasure boxes to prevent loved ones from struggling with the unknown issues at the end-stage of life. Ms. Myers has designed techniques anyone can quickly follow without a GPS to make sound decisions.

Ms. Myers as an expert with extensive knowledge of the funeral business, believes it is her responsibility to share her expertise on a broader level. Her passion has propelled her to expand her services, beginning with her book “Embracing the Teardrops” and now through seminars and online courses. Her services guide individuals in designing a strategy to fulfill
their end of life wishes.

The Book:

Embracing The Teardrops - The Planning Guide

This book helps grieving families avoid the major problematic pitfalls that they now discover they have to deal with, on top of their grief, when a loved one passes away without an End of Life Plan, which include:

Incomplete Life Stories: Insufficient knowledge about the person’s life can hinder the creation of a meaningful life story.
Unplanned Funerals: Families often find themselves having to arrange a loved one’s funeral without knowledge of their wishes.
Lack of a Will: When a person dies intestate, without a will, it can complicate the distribution of their assets.
Issues with Life Insurance: Discovering last-minute issues with a life insurance policy, such as lapses, missing beneficiaries, or deceased or minor beneficiaries, can cause significant challenges.
Inaccessible Bank Accounts: Difficulty accessing bank accounts due to the absence of named beneficiaries on the accounts.
And much more.
