"ceremonies of preservation" are also in "The King", "Imagination", etc. Preservation (or rendering in words/paint) inevitably involves a change of format - simplification, choosing what to omit. The persona here seems to be accepting the sacrifices involved in preserving a memory, not wanting the complications of the living person. The feeling seems mutual. It's time to move on.
