When a loved one passes on …
People pause briefly to reflect, but only briefly, then we go on with our lives and that person is forgotten for the most part. This is the only opportunity we really have to preserve those loving memories. It’s also at times like these that you really don’t need any more stress. Often family remembers will create the slideshow to music themselves however they rarely have the ability to do a more sophisticated personal video tribute. Let us take responsibility for putting a tribute video together for you while you simply focus on what you want to say, which photos and which video clips you want to use in your tribute. Many families find comfort in gathering and selecting photos for the memorial, it becomes a special time of reminiscing and sharing memories.
“ What the next generation will value most is not what we owned but the evidence of who we were and how we loved. “ Ellen Goodman
Video tributes should not be about entertaining the audience. They’re meant to comfort family and friends and let everyone participate in a meaningful way to the degree the family feels comfortable with. For this reason these videos should typically be longer than might typically be expected.
The idea is to minimize the amount of personal speaking and stress on the family. Many family and friends just can’t cope with public speaking at memorials, but they may feel remorse over this later wishing they had. Remove this burden by recording short video tributes from family and video testimonials from friends, these can be included in the movie. In this way a longer movie is very beneficial to the service and the healing process for all.
The atmosphere of the service changes to celebration with the flood of memories of the many joys they shared during the life’s journey with their loved one. For friends and family unable to attend the service, copies of the memorial video can be sent to them to remember times past.
Every life should be honored, remembered and celebrated, tribute videos are simply the best way to capture the essence of an individual’s life and can be shared with friends, family and generations to come.
