The hardest thing in life is probably parting. It's so easy to grasp the concept of all mortals must die in the end, but when you are the one being left behind, it makes the whole acceptance thing almost impossible. So what if a remembrance meal gives you an opportunity to talk with a deceased one more time? 
I am familiar with a remembrance meal, it has been a family tradition of mine for a long time. Giving it a hopeful tone into the story makes even more intriguing and I end up loving it more once I get through the second half of the book. I can't wait to read more work of the author.
