PERSONALIZATION
How We Specialize in Personalization
When searching for ways to personalize a funeral service, remember the moments you spent with the person and try to highlight the qualities that she or he are remembered for. Consider hobbies, subjects of interest and places where the person spent much of his or her time. It can help to make lists of their passions, achievements and memories you shared together. There are a number of ways that these lists can be incorporated into a service:
Photos and albums
There are many opportunities to display photos and albums at a funeral service. Poster boards with photo collages can be placed on easels for display. Home wall photos may be displayed on walls Photographs can be printed in the memorial folders, registry book and on urns. We want the space to be a remembrance of someone's live well lived.
Make the Space a Reflection of Them
There are many ways to make a funeral home, church, or event space more reflective of your loved ones. Artwork of the deceased or art created in tribute is a beautiful addition to a service. Sculptures, a slideshow of drawings or displaying artwork throughout the funeral home helps people learn more about a life that was cherished. Awards and trophies, newspaper clippings, uniforms are just a few times that can be displayed to make it more personalized during visitation time.
Music
Live and pre-recorded music are relaxing and comforting to those who have come to the service. Selecting the perfect music to represent your loved one is a great way to share their story during a funeral or memorial service.
Readings of Scripture and Poetry
Passages from the deceased’s favorite books or poems that capture the essence of life help create a service infused with wisdom and words to remember. You can also invite friends and family members to read passages or poems of their choice or write their own pieces to share.
