Artists Bring some of their artwork to display around the casket or urn. This would give others a chance to view their art where otherwise they may never have gotten the chance to see.
Collectors or Quilters Bring their most treasured items they collected to display or maybe an item they made themselves. Maybe they were a quilter and instead of the traditional pall on top of the casket display a quilt or other personal creation.
Firefighters Whether volunteer or paid, firefighters take pride in keeping us safe in our community. Display their uniform, badge, helmet or boots or even transport the casket to the cemetery on the back of a firetruck.
Military Did they serve in a branch of the Military? There are many ways to honor those who served and give back and show them the dignity and honor they deserve.
Musicians Display their instruments among the traditional flowers sent by family and friends. If they were a guitarist, place a basket by the register filled with guitar picks for everyone to take in rememberance of your loved one.
