How to Have a Memorial Service to Save on Funeral Costs
Instructions
Organizing a Memorial Service
1Take care of the body so that this is not weighing on your mind during the service. A small, private prayer over the body before interment or cremation is just fine.
2
Invite friends and family to the memorial service, either at a church, a hall or even a home.
3
Ask your friends and family to contact anyone you may have forgotten so that all of your loved ones' friends can be present.
4
Ask friends or family members of the deceased for readings, poems, or suggestions of music to play. Also ask them to provide photos with which to decorate the venue.
5
Focus on celebrating the person's life rather than dwelling on their death.
