Memorial Services

Services to honor loved ones who have passed on are often very personal occasions. In Unitarian Universalist congregations, these services are developed by the family of the deceased and the presiding Minister to specially honor the memory of that individual. The service might include the following elements:

• A eulogy
• Poems and other readings
• Prayer or meditation
• A time to remember the deceased with stories and memories
• Hymn singing or other music
• A time for personal reflection

The Minister is available to officiate funeral, grave side, and memorial services. Members of the congregation may enlist the services of the Minister as a benefit of membership.
