Personalization Services
Every life is different, and we believe every service should be too. When you’re thinking about how to personalize a funeral or memorial service, start with what made your loved one who they were — their passions, hobbies, relationships, faith, career and the little things people will always remember. Our role is to listen, guide you through the options, and help you create something meaningful. Below are a few ways families choose to personalize services at Roberts-Martinez Funeral Home in Haltom City, Texas.
Photos and Albums
There are many opportunities to display photos at a funeral or memorial service. Photo boards, collages and albums can be placed on easels for guests to view. Flat screen TV monitors can also be used to display pictures or a slideshow during calling hours or just prior to the service. Photographs can even be printed in memorial folders, placed in a registry book or displayed on urns.
Videos
A tribute video is a wonderful way to share your loved one’s life with others. Videos can be created using meaningful photos and music, and many families choose to keep them afterward as a special keepsake to share for years to come.
Artwork
Artwork created by your loved one, or artwork created in their honor, can be a beautiful addition to a service. Some families choose to display drawings, paintings or other artwork throughout the funeral home. Sculptures or slideshows of artwork can also be included to help guests learn more about the life that is being remembered.
Music
Live or pre-recorded music can be comforting and meaningful during a service. Some families create a playlist of favorite songs, include music their loved one wrote or invite musically inclined friends or family members to perform as part of the funeral or memorial service.
Reading of Poetry & Literature
Poetry, scripture and meaningful readings can bring comfort and help capture what words can’t always express. You may choose passages from favorite books or poems, or invite family and friends to read selections that reflect your loved one’s life. Some families also choose to write and share original pieces during the service.
