A Carr & Son Funeral Home


Values Of Funeral Service Program

The memorial services are the perfect opportunity for the deceased's loved ones to comfort each other and to bid farewell to their friend, relative or associate who has passed on. These events can take many forms as influenced by regional, religious, or even personal traditions and wishes. Presenting each attendee with a funeral program will make sure they know what to expect.

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 should contain a complete ordered listing, start to close, of how the service will proceed. For each passage, poem or song that is used as a tribute, the title, author and person who is performing it needs to be listed. It would also be a thoughtful gesture to have the obituary included as part of the publication.

This order of service helps the minister or officiant maintain control over the event's flow, keeping everything on time. This is also an effective way for attendees to physically see what is scheduled to happen next. Since the details of each tribute will be listed, it allows mourners to revisit any tributes they found especially comforting.

Aside from letting everyone know what to expect, these handouts often provide mourners with a sense of comfort and closure. It gives them a physical reminder of a very personal occasion. There is no wrong or right way to grieve, and for some, these mementos are key coping mechanisms.

Creating a funeral program serves multiple purposes for many people. They provide pertinent information about the deceased and present a listing of how the memorial proceedings will flow. This document is also a keepsake of sorts for those who desire to take some physical reminder for memory's sake.
