Due to ongoing Covid-19 precautions, it may be challenging for large groups to gather and celebrate the life of a deceased person.

As such, there are several ways to accommodate social distancing guidelines, including but not limited to:

• Hold a smaller family service now and plan for a larger Memorial gathering later


• Hold an outside-only event that allows for participants to socially distance (ex: Graveside Service)


• Organize a Vigil that can be seen from a distance and allows for the community to pay respects or drop off condolence gifts; this could be outside the home,or a drive-through visitation ceremony at a Funeral Home, allowing the community to pay their last respects


• Video record the service and share with a larger group on the internet


• Create a virtual service or stream the Funeral on the internet using Zoom, Google Meet, Skype, Facebook, YouTube, or any other live streaming platforms


• Create a virtual photo album that allows friends and family to upload photo or video memories; it can even be printed into a physical book at a later date


• Purchase hand sanitizer and make easily accessible for everyone during any gathering
