WHAT ISA MEMORIAL SERVICE?
A memorial service is held by a small group of friends and relatives of
deceased person who gather to pay him tribute. There usually is no re
ligious service, and no viewing of the body, since such a service ofte
takes place weeks after the death.
Mental health professionals who have studied the memorial service,
however, say it often is inadequate for the living. Because, unlike th
tradiational full-service funeral, a memorial service does not includ
viewing of the body, it does not "bring home" the idea of death as effec
tively. As a result, survivors are left psychologically bewildered; the fac
of death has not yet "sunk in."
Another advantage of the full-service funeral is that it involves the famil
to a great extent in preparations; psychologists tell us that specific ac
tions are sometimes the best therapy for grief.
As funeral directors, we are experienced at handling many differen
types of funeral services. Pre -planning is generally advisable; for mor
information, please call or stop by to talk with us.
