What To Know When Choosing A Funeral Book Of Memory

By Sophia Nathan


When a person is filled with grief over the loss of a relative, they may not be fully aware of everything and everyone around them during the mourning period. Many people are likely to approach them to pay respects for the deceased and the family may wish to extend their thanks after a short time has passed. Having a funeral memory book compiled is one method used to deal with this issue.

Even under the best circumstances, it can be difficult to recall all guests who attend a function. Many families like to acknowledge those who showed their support during such a great loss. Keeping a record of who attended or sent condolences, and how they knew the honored individual is a good idea.

At most memorial services and receptions, a guest registry is set on a table near the entrance. People will provide their name as they arrive, providing a record of attendance. Some designs also have space for people to leave additional contact information and their relationship to the deceased.

Some of the more detailed items are designed to encourage guests to leave more personal information. They may write a brief condolence sentiment or even briefly share a recollection of a special time with the honoree. Reading such entries can bring comfort to bereaved individuals with access to the journal.

Quite often, family members will return to these journals after their emotions have calmed, and refresh themselves on who came to services. All the names, words of encouragement and shared memories will let them know just how much their loved one meant to others. The cards that were sent with flowers, those received in the mail as well as messages left online may be added to the keepsake.

Many guests like to bring a photograph or other special token to leave on the memorandum table near the register. These may also be added to the collection to create a sentimental keepsake journal for the survivors. Having a sign in log can provide much comfort and assurance to remaining family members.
