These few questions will help you to create a memorial service bulletin template or funeral program template that fits your needs. Together, we will be able to offer those in attendance at the service a cherished keepsake of your loved one’s life.
1. What best matches your loved one’s personality? Simple, straight-forward, conservative (subtle shades of softer colors, such as pink and lavender) or wild and adventurous (splashes of red, purple, and orange).
2. Does you loved one have a favorite place that he or she enjoyed frequently, such as the beach, camping or gardening? Did he or she enjoy spring or fall? You can usually find a theme or design that depicts these places.
3. Is there a particular funeral poem, reading, or religious text that offers consolation to you or meant a great deal to your loved one? Often, personalized letters and notes are included in the funeral program.
4. If you wish to include a picture, do you want a recent photo of your loved one, or perhaps an older photograph such as a photo from a wedding, from high school, or the military?
5. Would you like to include family photos (such as photo collages) in the funeral program?
6. Did your loved one participate in a special hobby or hold a unique position of which he or she was particularly proud, and do you feel it may be appropriate to include such a theme in the funeral program template?
7. Do you wish to have a listing of special life events (e.g. graduations, marriages, military service/awards, jobs, volunteer service, and retirement) included in the funeral program?
8. Do you wish to have a listing of family members, both living and pre-deceased, included in the funeral program?
