I love your ideas of personalizing the deceased. A long time friend of mine just lost her daughter who was 43 years old. She loved Mickey Mouse. Mickey Mouse was all over her house in every way you could imagine. I will be creating and designing her obituary. I am struggling with how to incorporate Mickey Mouse.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have picked up some weird ideas that have turned out so special for the family. Like the time the whole family arrived at the chapel barefoot, and helped themselves to tequila before the service. Or the toolbox that was in the chapel for the guy who restored old cars 🙂

They’re extremely resourceful, speedy, and will often leave you wondering how the heck they pulled that event off. This type of funeral professional is a true life celebrante and puts the “personal” in funeral personalization. […]
