How To Go About Planning For A Funeral Service
One of the certainties of our being is death. Each one of use has to face it and is yet unprepared for it. Remembering the dead is an age old practice that has been continuously changing to suit the present times. Conventionally, the funeral service used to take place at the church with chanting of solemn hymns and a speech. But, as a larger number of people are looking forward to personalized services, the practice has undergone change over the last few decades.
Carrying out a funeral service right after the death of a loved one can be a very difficult job for any family. One of the myths about service is that it is compulsory under law for the family of the departed to arrange a service, but this is not true.
Secondly, most people think that it has to be conducted in a church, which again is not the case. Traditionally these services might have been held in churches but with the trends changing and a drive to make these affairs more personal, many funeral services are being held within the home of the deceased nowadays.
Thirdly, such services do not mandate the presence of any clergy or pastor or even a casket for that matter.
However, for any such personalized funeral service, you need to take into account the dead person while making the arrangements. The music that will be played at the service must be soft as well as from the favourites of the departed. You have the option of playing recorded music or engaging a live music band.
There is also a growing trend of displaying the personal items of the deceased to display his or her personality to the whole world. Another crucial aspect in any funeral service is an address, whether as a recital, a song or even a speech describing the deceased.
Finally, it is important to give some memento to people who gather for the funeral service, so that they can remember the dead person forever.
