Benefits Of Having Program For Funeral Service

Most people view a memorial service as their last opportunity to bid farewell to a friend, associate or family member. There are a number of cultural, regional and personal influences that can affect these types of proceedings. Providing a funeral program is one way to let all in attendance understand the order of actions.

Some choose to use a single panel design, while others find it best to print booklets. Either way, the handout should clearly present the deceased's complete given name as well as the days on which they were born and died. The place and time the services are to be held, and the honoree's photo are also placed on the front cover.

The inside of the document will provide the order of proceedings from start to finish. Each song that is played, passage or poem that is read, should also have their author identified along with the name of who will be presenting them. Sometimes the family chooses to include a copy of the obituary so that all interested guests will have a copy.

Having a printed order of service helps the officiant to keep the proceedings flowing smoothly and in a timely fashion. It also provides an opportunity for those in attendance to follow along. Everyone will know what to expect as well as the details of any tributes performed during the event.

Perhaps the most valuable purpose of this type of document is the sense of closure it gives to the mourners. It provides them something physical to take away from the event. People grieve in different ways and for some, this type of memento is an important coping mechanism.

There are multiple reasons why having an available funeral program available at the services is important. It not only pays homage to the deceased, but it helps those in attendance follow the proceedings. For many individuals, these handouts are keepsakes that assist them in coping with their own sense of loss.
