Making A Closed Coffin Serve More Personal

August 1, 2022

You should keep in mind these tips and suggestions if you are planning a closed coffin funeral for a loved one. You can still make it special and personal.

In some cases, open coffins aren't feasible. Closed coffins can be made for various reasons. The services are often available, but are seldom as popular as they could be, since they are not tailored to individual needs. People cannot be able to see their loved ones and say goodbye to them because closed coffins prevent them from being able to see them. You can record these personal touches in funeral homes in Layton, UT that offer closed casket services.   


Use Photos 


In place of opening the box, you can show respect to loved ones with photos instead. On the coffin, there could also be one or more photographs of the deceased. This depends on how many photographs you want to display. Collages can also be crafted from photographs seen at funerals by family members. Attending a memorial service provides closure for those who attended and a comfort for those who attended. Adding something really personal can make the service more unique and personal. At the memorial ceremony, you can choose the photos or collages you wish to see, with the help of friends and family. 


Videos 


Family and friends played a big part in capturing the best moments of the video. Videos can be created by combining clips from various video sources as well as slideshows with photos of the deceased. Visitors can reminisce about their memories while watching a video during the funeral service. A DVD can be copied for personal use if someone wishes to save it in memory of a loved one. It is sometimes the exact thing people want to accomplish in memory of their deceased loved ones. People can never be wrong when they wish for someone to carry on a memory. 


Eulogies 


When praise is given by all present, it can help to strengthen the bond between individuals. Sharing funny stories about the deceased can also enhance the remembrance process. There is also a message in these stories that reminds the recipient of all the fun times spent with friends. Other choices include singing, reading or sharing stories. You may want to begin this process in advance to avoid having to deal with the entire story. We should shorten the stories but let each person share their feelings so everybody can come together.
