Personalizing A Funeral
Personalization helps the bereaved to focus on the life lived as apposed to the life lost. Things that offer personalization are the use of pictures, special verses or readings, the selection of music for the funeral/memorial service, and also the people who act as pallbearers, readers or other rolls in the service.
At Slade's Funeral Homes we offer a variety of stands and magnetic boards for pictures or the use of wall space to hang pictures. We also provide any stands for the placement of special items such as awards, mementos or things that a person may have made or received.
We invite your ideas and suggestions to help personalize your loved ones funeral because it is a healthy step toward the healing process of ones grief.
