Ideas for a Simple Memorial Service in Sudbury

Unlike a traditional funeral, a memorial service is a gathering where a casket is not present (although the urn with the cremated remains may be on display). A simple memorial service can be held weeks or even months after the death.

A memorial service in Sudbury can be held in a church, the funeral home, or a community hall. There is usually music, selected readings, and a eulogy. The simple Memorial service can be further personalized as a celebration-of-life.

Simple Memorial Service Ideas

Our experience has shown us that many of today's families want more meaning than a traditional funeral. This can be done by bringing more of the personality and lifestyle of the deceased into the arrangements. By displaying photographs or staging the event around a favorite pastime, a memorial service can become more personal and meaningful.

If a personalized memorial service in Sudbury suits the needs of your family, we suggest you consider the following questions:

• What did your loved one like to do?
• What was he or she like as an individual?
• What was their profession and how did that shape their life?
• Was your loved one spiritual?
• Was he or she proud of their cultural or ethnic heritage?
