When planning a funeral or memorial, it helps to spend time thinking about our loved ones and things that are personally meaningful. A few ways to personalize a funeral or memorial:
- Photo slideshow
- Music playlist with their favorite or meaningful music
- Display their artwork or other memorabilia
- Serve some of their favorite foods
- Read a poem they liked or an inspiring verse that relates to them or your experience with them
- Have a gathering (big, small, formal, or informal) in a favorite place
