Basics You Should Notice When Organizing Secular Funerals
If a non religious funeral is in the works, individuals will have to take some extra steps to make sure that the wishes of the deceased are respected. This way, all family members will be happy. At no point should religion be mentioned in the ceremony.
Family members can honor the deceased individual by choosing a gravestone that does not have any sayings that are associated with religion. In fact, men and women should be begin looking into possible inscriptions as soon as they can. As long as marble or granite is the rock of choice, the inscription will remain for many years.
Humanism should be a valued idea. In fact, many people readily admit that they do not need religion in order to live meaningful lives. Many individuals are agnostic. Family members and friends can get together and out together a ceremony that will honor the wishes of their loved one.
Books might also be brought into the fold. If the family member had long been in love with Twain or Einstein, a few sayings from these authors can be read aloud. Some of the deceased's favorite books might even be set up at the ceremony for others to view.
Music can also be brought in. If organizers need some help choosing some music, they should look at the classical genre. Mozart and Bach have both produced some wonderful pieces that will be well loved by all the attendees. Symphonies and sonatas generally work best for these kinds of ceremonies.
In the end, setting up a non religious funeral does not have to be overly difficult. As long as people follow their hearts, they should be successful. If they need guidance along the way, they can rely on friends who have been through such ceremonies in the recent past.
