Order For Service Of Memorial Schedule Keepsakes

A lot of planning goes into making the final arrangements when someone passes away. Creating a memorable gathering which allows friends and family to pay their respects and say their goodbyes is an important task. Things will flow more smoothly when an order of service funeral booklet is given to all in attendance.

The booklet is a printed handout that should be presented to each guest attending the memorial event. This item provides a detailed listing of tributes that are planned and who is scheduled to speak. To put this piece together, one must start by making a few decisions and choices.

Begin by selecting a photo of the deceased to be used on the cover. This should be a fairly recent picture that flatters the individual as well as shows their personality. Though black and white is perfectly acceptable, color has a tendency to show up better and adds a more ethereal look to the document, which helps to soothe mourners.

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.

A popular item often included in these programs is the honoree's obituary. Even though people are free to read this tribute in the local papers, it is a special touch to provide each guest with their own keepsake copy. A lot of people collect the printouts as keepsake tokens and the addition of the final tribute is extra thoughtful.

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.
