Funeral Order Of Service Sample Purposes

Attending a memorial for a friend or family member who has passed away can bring forth a lot of emotion. Due to personal requests, cultural and religious traditions, some attendees may feel a little lost at such events. When a funeral order of service handout is provided, everyone will be more aware and comfortable.

Letting guests know what is happening is the primary purpose for this handout. It provides a complete guide to what action follows another and a brief description of each. This is also the forum for listing each tribute that will be paid, whether it be a speaker, a song, a reading or musical piece.

The front of the program is where a favorite photo of the deceased is placed. Below the picture should be printed the honoree's full name, their dates of birth and death, followed by the place and the time the event will take place. The top of the page typically has a memorial caption.

Inside the program is a carefully organized list of events as they are scheduled to happen, starting with the opening remarks and ending with closing prayers or comments. Having things clearly listed in this fashion is especially helpful to those who may not be familiar with how these proceedings go since there are a lot of variations. It also assists the officiant with keeping control.

Religious script, quotes, literary passages, hymns, songs, instrumentals and poetry are a few things often used to pay tribute at memorials. With the handout in place, all in attendance are aware of which are set to be delivered. The program should include all titles, sources, authors, composers and performers of each piece.

The funeral order of service is a useful way to make everyone aware of what will be happening during the memorial event. It makes even those who are not well versed in the subject feel included. Those who choose to keep tokens for memory boxes or scrapbooks often find these items to be perfect for such a purpose.
