Sympathy Gifts & Sets

The memorial candle gift set

The set people ask for most is simply a guided remembrance journal together with The Light Remains memorial soy candle — something to write in, and something to light while writing. There is no fixed box to buy: you choose the edition that matches the loss, add the candle, and the discount applies on its own at checkout.

How the sympathy gift set is priced

  • Journal, paperback — $29.99
  • Journal, hardcover — $39.99
  • The Light Remains candle — $24.95, or $19.96 with any journal (20% off, applied automatically)

Paperback set $49.95 · Hardcover set $59.95

The 20% is added by the store, not by a code. It appears in the cart as soon as a journal and the candle are both in it.

Buying for a family

Four or more journals in one order take 12.5% off automatically — for the brothers and sisters, or for everyone at a funeral who would like their own. There are no codes to enter: the store applies whichever discount leaves you better off, so you never have to work it out yourself.

What is in the set

  • A guided journal with eighty gentle prompts across nine chapters — 120 pages, 6 × 9 in (15 × 23 cm), hardcover or paperback
  • An edition written for one specific loss: a parent, a partner, a sibling, a grandparent, a child, a friend, or a pet
  • A memorial candle — The Light Remains, hand-poured soy in seven gentle scents, made to be lit at a quiet moment rather than to scent a room

The candle ships within the United States only. Journals ship worldwide, printed to order close to the recipient.

Choosing a sympathy gift when you don't know what to say

A journal asks nothing of the person receiving it. There is no reply to write and no timeline to keep to — they can open it in the first week or leave it on a shelf for a year. If you would like to include a note of your own, the first page is left blank for exactly that.

If you are not sure which edition fits, read who each edition is for, or begin with 25 free grief journal prompts to see the tone of the writing before you buy.

“Flowers fade in a week. A journal opens slowly — a page at a time, for as long as it’s needed.”

Good To Know

A few things worth knowing

Will it feel like a typical sympathy gift?

No — it’s private, meant to be used alone rather than displayed. Nothing about the packaging announces what’s inside.

Can I send it straight to them?

Yes. Add their address at checkout and write a short note — we’ll print it on an enclosure card, with no pricing included.

How long until it arrives?

Everything is made to order, then ships within a few days. We currently deliver to the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia.
