When you are planning cremation services and you want to make sure you don’t forget to include anyone in the services, you may find that you are trying to decide who to invite to the Henrietta, NY cremation services. While in most cases you won’t need to send out individual invitations, it never hurts to check to make sure everyone knows the time and date of the services. If you need help knowing who to invite, be sure to keep some of these tips and suggestions in mind to make it possible for those who loved the deceased to pay their respects.
Friends
For many people, friends are just as close as family and you want to make sure you invite anyone the deceased may have considered a friend to the services. Many of them may have talked to the deceased often over the years but will still want to know about their passing so they can go to the services. You can find friends online or even go back through old photos, yearbooks and more to find out some of the people your loved one considered a friend and be sure to invite them to the services.
Family
Most family members will find out quickly if a loved one passes away, but not everyone so you should reach out to them when possible. If you did not include the time and ate of the services in the announcement or obituary, you will still need to share that information with them. If you don’t have contact information for all the members of your family you may want to ask those you do talk to often to help you reach them and make sure they know that your deceased loved one is having a cremation.
Don’t forget to invite your loved one’s coworkers to the cremation services. Whether they were working with your loved one when they passed or are people, they worked with at one point and no longer did, you can still invite them. A lot of people make good friends at work and if you think your loved one had a friend at one of the jobs they worked in the past, it might be a good idea to check to see if any of your loved one’s coworkers would be willing to come to the services, you can always reach out to them and ensure they are away of the cremation service plans.
