The recent “Red Carpet Viewing” for late designer Vernest Moore in New Jersey raised some eyebrows and sparked some mixed emotions. Friends and family gathered for a unique celebration of the deceased, complete with a red carpet leading to Vernest’s open casket.
During this event, model Erica L. Carrington made a splash by strutting her stuff on the red carpet and posing for pictures. She certainly wanted to leave a lasting impression on Vernest, and she did just that. The crowd cheered for Erica as she stopped to blow Vernest a kiss at his casket before posing one more time in front of it.
For Erica, this was a final farewell and a way to honor her late friend. She wrote, “I CAN’T BELIEVE this would be my final walk for you, so I WON’T. From now on…even if I’m not walking FOR YOU, I’ll be walking WITH YOU, because I know you’ll ALWAYS be with me.” Some people on social media were confused by Erica’s walk, but many loved it, with some saying that it was a creative and over-the-top way to celebrate the life of a loved one.
The event brought up an interesting topic—how should we commemorate the life of a loved one? Funerals and memorials have long been somber occasions, but many people are starting to rethink these traditions. Some find comfort in celebrating the life of their loved ones in a way that reflects their personality and passions. Whether it’s a red carpet viewing, a unique theme, or a personalized ceremony, people are finding ways to honor their loved ones that feel authentic and true to the person they are remembering.
This shift in how we approach death and grieving is evident in the way people are choosing to celebrate the lives of their loved ones. It’s a reminder that mourning is not a one-size-fits-all experience, and there is no right or wrong way to honor someone who has passed away. As long as it comes from a place of love and respect, there is room for creativity and individuality in how we remember those who have touched our lives.
As we continue to navigate the complexities of grief and remembrance, it’s important to acknowledge the diverse ways people choose to honor their loved ones. These unique celebrations serve as a testament to the impact each person has had on those around them and the lasting legacy they leave behind.
