Funeral Program Layout Has Values

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.

This printout can be a single sheet of paper or a pamphlet of multiple pages. It will contain the honoree's full name, the dates of their birth and passing, and the details of when and where the services will be held. The deceased's photograph is also something most families choose to include on the product's cover.

On the inside, the handout will have the order of service from opening to closing. This information should include the titles of all poems, songs or passages to be used as well as the author and the name of who will be reciting, playing or performing each. Some people also like to incorporate a copy of the obituary.

This printed order helps whoever is officiating over the services to keep things flowing and to make sure nothing is left out. Fellow mourners are also able to follow along much easier when they have a guide in hand. It is helpful to know how things will proceed and to also be able to revisit any tributes that one finds touching.

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.
