Order Of 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.

This is a printed handout that is given to each guest in attendance at the memorial event. It contains a complete listing of what will happen, who will be speaking, and each type of tribute to be paid. Creating this piece begins by making a series of choices and 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 such as who will be officiating and what musical selections or verbal readings are to be included in the proceedings are key. It will also be necessary to determine who will deliver each oral piece or perform each song. Once all of this has been settled on, the next step is determining at what point they will be used.

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.

Arranging an order of service funeral program is one of the many tasks necessary when someone passes away. It is a lovely way to pay tribute to the one who has passed on. It also helps keep everyone informed as to what is scheduled to occur during the memorial gathering.
