Memorial Program Maker

Make a funeral program, with help finding the words.

Answer a few questions about the person and the service. We set their photo, life story and order of service into a program you can print at home or at a print shop.

Help with the words

The life story and the eulogy are often the hardest part to write. Answer a few questions and get a first draft built only from your answers. It won’t add a hobby or a relative you didn’t mention. Then change it until it sounds like your family.

From the answers: porch light, third grade, 31 years

“She taught third grade at Orchard Lane Elementary for thirty-one years, and the porch light stayed on for whoever needed it.”

Nothing added that you didn’t say.

Questions

How do I print it?

Print the folded PDF double-sided on letter paper, flipping on the short edge, and fold it in half. Or take the files to a print shop with the one-page instruction sheet in your download.

Can I make changes after paying?

Yes. For 30 days you can change anything and download again.

Do I need an account?

Only for written drafts. Sign in with your email for 3 free drafts; an order adds 20 more. Everything else needs no account. Your work is saved in this browser, on this device, and you can delete it at any time.

What happens to the photo and words I add?

They stay on your device while you work. To make a download, they go to our server and are discarded once the file is made. For a draft, your answers go to Google’s Gemini service. We hold the finished draft for up to 10 minutes in case your browser asks again, then delete it.

Will the writing help make things up?

It is told to use only your answers. Any name or number we can’t find in them is listed for you to check. Read the draft before you print it.

What sizes can I print?

5.5 × 8.5 inches (letter folded in half), 7 × 8.5 inches (legal folded), 8.5 × 11 inches (tabloid folded) and A5 (A4 folded).
