When a friend, family member, or even a colleague is moving, it can be a sad time. You are bound to miss their company and presence in your lives. This is usually when we give some going away gifts as a way of saying farewell in a memorable way. It can be items for them to keep, a sentimental goodbye, or something more practical such as things to help the person pack and move. Remember that it is a very stressful time for the person moving, so give something that helps them or lifts their spirits.
