How do you honour your dead loved ones?

I just suffered from a really big loss, the first one I ever had. But I think I’m handling the situation very well, I think their spirit is still on this Earth and with me, I can feel that I still have a connection to them and that they’re not really “lost forever”. I use tarot cards to communicate and I lit candles in their honour because it’s just what feels the most right to me. When you suffer a loss like this, what do you do? Do you keep in touch?
