Baby Boomers don?t want funerals when they die, they want a party, according to savvy funeral directors. Boomers want a ?Funeral-Palooza? where family and friends can support each other at a memorable send-off event for the deceased.
From a motorcycle hearse ?last ride? to a Rock n?Roll final tribute, personalized memorial themes come alive through many small details. But how can a grieving family put such individualized funerals and memorial services together under the emotional pain of loss?
Joe Pray, Professional Funeral Creationeer
Professional Funeral Creationeer Joe Pray, a fifth generation funeral director with the family-owned Pray Funeral Home, will discuss personalization of funerals on A Good Goodbye Radio this Wednesday, July 10 at 6:00 p.m. ET/3:00 p.m. PT on The RockStar Radio Network.
