    Sample online funeral scripts

    Song Idea: Reflective & Hopeful

    "'Hallelujah' (Leonard Cohen) – perfect for a contemplative slideshow reflecting on a life well-lived, suitable for a 7-minute tribute with 40-50 photos."

    Theme Idea: 'A Life in Bloom'

    "Focus on images of the person in nature, tending a garden, or enjoying vibrant landscapes, showcasing their love for growth and beauty. Pair with instrumental music like 'Moon River' (Henry Mancini)."

    Image Selection Tip: 'Journey Through Time'

    "Arrange photos chronologically, starting from childhood, moving through adolescence, adulthood, and later years. Include 'milestone' photos – graduations, weddings, travels to places like Paris or their favorite seaside town."
