Photos & Albums

There are many opportunities to display photos at a funeral service. Poster boards with photo collages can be placed on easels for display. Flat screen TV monitors can be used to display pictures, videos, or a slideshow. Photographs can be printed in the memorial folders, registry book or on urns.

Videos

A DVD video or USB drive is a wonderful way to share your loved one’s life with others. It can be personalized with your special photos and music. These videos become keepsakes that you can share with your family for generations.

Artwork

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.

Music

Live or pre-recorded music can be relaxing and comforting to those who have come to the service. Some other ways music can be used, is to record a CD with the deceased’s favorite songs or songs that he or she wrote or to have musically inclined family or friends perform at the funeral service.

Readings of Poetry & Literature

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.
