Welcome to planDisney, Jessica! Thank you for bringing such a beautiful question to us. On behalf of my friends and fellow panelists at planDisney, I am sorry to hear of the passing of your mom and a fellow admirer of Disney.
Wanting to honor your mom at the Most Magical Place on Earth is the perfect tribute. Make your July visit all about mom! Honor her memory by visiting her favorites! Select her favorite
Disney Dining location for a tribute dinner to your mom. Perhaps prepare a few words or a toast to share among your table to pay tribute to your mom. I’m sure your mom would also smile if you were to stay at, or visit, her favorite
Disney World hotel.
When it comes to the Disney Parks, select her favorite attractions to enjoy together. While you wait in line to experience the attractions, perhaps share your favorite memory of your mom on that attraction with each other. That will surely bring smiles and perhaps some laughter to your group.
I think another beautiful tribute that a true fan, such as your mom, would appreciate is to pick up complimentary “I’m Celebrating…” buttons. These free buttons can be picked up at your Disney World hotel or at
Guest Relations at any of the Disney Parks. You can then write your mom’s name on the pins. I’m sure she would love her family celebrating her life in such a magical and happy way!
Jessica, I hope these are some helpful ways for your family to celebrate the beautiful memory of your mom.
Dreams do come true!
Jonathan
