What are some ways I can personalize a funeral service?
Personalization can be achieved in many ways. The deceased persons favorite music can be played during calling hours or incorporated into the service. Memorabilia such as a favorite fishing pole, golf club, or stuffed animal, as well as crafts such as quilts, doilies, clothing or other hand made items can be displayed. A memory board to display family photos is available at the funeral home. A photo can be added to the obituary in the newspaper. A persons favorite cologne or perfume and makeup can be used by the funeral director during preparation. Bagpipers and military personnel can also be contacted to participate in a service.
