Service Of Memorial Schedule Handouts

Quite a lot of detail and planning is required when setting up final arrangements for one who has passed on. Part of this task is coming up with a memorial event that is fitting. Having an order of service funeral program available for all will help make this occasion go more smoothly.

A copy of this program is meant to be passed out to every person who attends the memorial. This allows them to see what is supposed to happen, who is scheduled to speak, as well as what tribute pieces are going to be used. The final product is achieved through a succession of decisions.

The first decision is generally which, if any, photograph of the deceased is to be placed upon the cover. The photo should be a recent likeness that is both flattering and shows personality. The use of black and white is fine though color gives the program a brighter, more uplifting feel which many mourners find more comforting.

Decisions about who will officiate the proceedings as well as which oral recitations and musical selections are being performed. For each piece that will be used, it should also be determined who is going to be responsible for their delivery. The final step is placing them in the most appropriate ordering.

Another thing commonly included in this publication is a copy of the obituary. Though generally printed in the local newspaper, including it in the printed program ensures that each guest has access to this piece of tribute. Those who keep these memorial handouts as tokens, or as a way to deal with the grief of loss, appreciate this extra bit of thoughtfulness.

There is quite a bit that goes into creating an order of service funeral program for one who has passed away. It pays tribute to one who will be missed and provides a special keepsake for the bereaved. This is a great way to let all guests know what to expect at the memorial event.
