			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the certainties of our being is death. All of us have to confront it and is yet unprepared for it. Honouring the dead is a very old practice that has been constantly changing to fit into the present times. Traditionally, the funeral service took place at the church with chanting of solemn hymns and a speech. But, this practice is changing today, with a lot of people wanting to go for a more personal funeral service for their near and dear one.</p>
<p>Preparing for a funeral could be an extremely painful and tough task, particularly immediately after the death of a relative or someone close. A common misconception that a funeral service is a legal necessity is incorrect as no law makes it compulsory to conduct a funeral service. Secondly, a lot of people have an erroneous belief that a service can be held only in a church. It is to be noted that though traditionally such services were carried out in a church, with the trend of personalizing, many funeral services are being conducted within the premises of the departed. Thirdly, such a personalized service does not mandate use of a casket or even a pastor or clergy to conduct the rituals.</p>
<p>But, in keeping with the idea of a personal funeral service, a lot of thought must be given to the preferences of the deceased person. The selection of music should be from among the personal choices of the deceased, though it is advisable to have soft music. You could select from a live performance or playing pre recorded music.</p>
<p>Some families prefer putting up the personal things of the deceased in a collage, for the gathering to reflect on his or her life. Address is very crucial in all funeral services inclusive of the personal ones. It could be a recital, a song or a personal speech that reflects upon the dead person.</p>
<p>Finally, it is preferable to give the guests gathered at the service some type of a memento that will help them remember the departed forever.</p>
