After the death of a loved one, there are many ways to honor them. For example, you can read a speech, an original poem or select your favorite quotes. However, words are not the only means of expressing emotions and showing admiration for a deceased person. We can also do symbolic acts like planting a tree and making a personalized funeral plaque…
Have a personalized funeral plaque made
Do you want to pay tribute to a loved one who has passed away? Have you thought regarding having a funeral plaque made? This may be a good solution to celebrate the deceased, but also to decorate his grave.
However, to express all his consideration to the deceased, the ideal is to make a personalized plaque. As o-funeraire.fr explains on its website, there are many ways to make this custom sign. One can put the first and last names as well as the date of birth of his relative. You can also include your job or hobbies.
If this option does not appeal to you, you can have a text, a tribute message or a quote written on the sign. Remember, however, that the text should be short and simple to facilitate reading. It must also respect the memory of the deceased and will not necessarily refer to religion or a particular cult.
Finally, to illustrate the grave of the loved one in an intimate way, you can add a photo of the deceased or visuals relating to his life or his passions to the plaque.
Funeral plaque: which materials and shapes to choose?
Manufacturers use many materials (stone, granite, marble, ceramic) for the manufacture of funeral plaques. However, the plexiglass supports stand out because of their interesting properties. In addition to being robust, they do not fear bad weather.
Regarding the shape of the sign, the model to choose may depend on the preferences or the history of the deceased. You will find rectangular, round, oval or heart-shaped products.
You can also choose a pattern and a theme for its support. If the deceased loved flowers or flora, a plaque with a nature motif might do just fine. Why not choose a book-shaped stand with his best quote if he was a lover of reading? Finally, a soccer-themed plaque might be a good idea for a loved one who is passionate regarding the sport.
Funeral plaque: the budget to plan
The price of a funeral plaque is not fixed. It depends on several elements, namely:
- the material used,
- the size of the engraving,
- the number of messages on the medium.
The know-how and experience of the service provider are also factors to consider.
Plant a tree in his honor
Did you know that you can pay tribute with a tree? In addition to being a strong symbolic gesture, it is an ecological act. Indeed, you plant a memory that will grow and allow the deceased to connect the living world. Through this act, you also tell him that his memory lives on. As for the relatives of the deceased, they can come and pray under this living monument. Watching the shrub grow and change over the years brings back fond memories.
In the long term, you are carrying out an ecological act by involving yourself in the fight once morest global warming. You may not know it, but trees significantly reduce air pollution by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Their presence also reduces the risk of flooding thanks to their roots. They also serve as shelters for wildlife.
To create a strong bond with the deceased, each member of the family can tie a ribbon on which he will have written a message. You can also place a fetish object of the disappeared. In this way, the tree will be truly steeped in history.
Create an online memorial page to share memories and stories
A memorial space may not be a physical medium (gravestone) or a tree. It can also be virtual. Today, thanks to digital technology, it is easy to pay tribute to a loved one who has passed away. If you have photos, videos of the deceased as well as many anecdotes regarding him, then consider creating an online memory space. It will be a great way to treasure them and pass them on to other generations, why not.
That said, you can create an account on social networks: Facebook, Instagram, Telegram… The advantage of digital tools: they allow you to put a lot of information and also to reach all the people who had links with the disappeared.
