Personalising the funeral

Working with you to deliver a service that honours and celebrates their memory.

Campbell & Sons are dedicated to helping you create a personal atmosphere that reflects your loved one.

There is no limit to the ways in which a person can be remembered – we are here to help you find ways to celebrate your loved one’s life and times.

Our team are highly experienced at creating touching photographic and video tributes, as well as service sheets and memorial books, music and floral tributes.

Images and Mementos

Photographs and video are powerful ways of bringing a person’s memory to mind.

Campbell & Sons will collect and compile your photographic and video memories into a tribute that may be used as part of the ceremony, a visual memorial at the reception, or any way you wish.

Symbols

The use of such symbols as flags and insignia, important awards or examples of their art and hobbies can all help bring the life of your loved one into focus.

The lighting of candles to represent life and hope, or other symbolic acts may also enrich the event and help those present start to come to terms with the death of a family member or friend.

Service Sheets

Campbell & Sons offer personalized service sheets to help mourners participate in the service, as well as providing a memento for those attending the service.

Memorial Books

Campbell & Sons can craft a memorial book as a tribute to your loved one and a record of those who attended, a memorial book is a significant memento and distinctive keepsake.

Flowers

A classic symbol of enduring memory and love, we are able to provide expert floral advice. Alternatively, tell us your preferences and we will organise floral arrangements that perfectly reflect your loved one.

Record / Livestream

Campbell & Sons offers both recordings provided on a USB stick and online streaming of funeral services for those who cannot be there on the day.

Eulogy & Tributes

Creating a eulogy can be challenging. A few minutes will not do justice to an entire lifetime, yet the right words can bring comfort and prompt others to share special memories.

There are no set rules to writing a eulogy or giving a tribute, but you may want to consider some of the following:

  • Favourite poem, quote or reading
  • Their spiritual outlook on life
  • Major milestone
  • Interests and hobbies
  • Anecdotes
  • Speaking on behalf of absent family members or friends

If you would like guidance in creating a eulogy, we are happy to help.
