Funeral Order Of Service Sample Contents

Memorial events are commonly filled with a lot of emotion as people say farewell to a dear friend. It can be difficult for attendees to understand the proceedings without some type of guide. Having a funeral order of service program printed and ready to hand out to guests can make everything much simpler.

Though it serves several purposes, the primary task of this printout is to provide guests with useful information. Each step of the proceedings is listed so that everyone is aware of what is happening next. This will also allow them to know the names of any sung or spoken tributes delivered.

A photograph of the deceased is normally used to adorn the program's cover. Above the likeness is generally placed a sentimental caption. Below the picture is where the honoree's complete name, the days on which they were born and passed away, as well as the information regarding where and when the event takes place is printed.

Inside the program is a carefully organized list of events as they are scheduled to happen, starting with the opening remarks and ending with closing prayers or comments. Having things clearly listed in this fashion is especially helpful to those who may not be familiar with how these proceedings go since there are a lot of variations. It also assists the officiant with keeping control.

Some commonly used elements for memorial events are songs or hymns and literary passages or verses that were special to the deceased. Having them listed in the program lets all the guests know what the tribute pieces are. One should always take care to ensure that every piece is properly titled and that credit is given to the composer, author and presenter of each.

The funeral order of service printout is a helpful tool for guests who want to know the program's details. This is great for those who wish more information on a particular tribute or who are unfamiliar with what to expect on this occasion. Handouts also make a touching keepsake for any mourners who like to put such tokens in scrapbooks or memory boxes.
