Web Tributes
A full web tribute is provided for every single family we serve. It includes your loved one’s own home page, obituary, visitation & service information, a photo gallery, a memorial video (if one is created), and an opportunity for people to leave and view condolences to the family. Each web tribute has a background and music that reflects the life of the deceased.
"We took home a collage card and it told us how to view Joe’s web tribute online…we wanted to see the video again, and it was so easy to watch online…I watch it whenever I need to feel close to him again.”
Tribute Displays
We encourage families to bring in items such as jewelry, photographs, mementos, anything that can be displayed to reflect the life their loved one lived. Golf Clubs, fishing rods, work boots, hard hats, needle point, knitting needles and much more have been brought in and carefully displayed by the staff at Coyle to help tell a life story.
“When people came to the funeral home they couldn’t believe that all of Dad’s hunting conquers were proudly on display, from the stuffed duck to the stuffed bear, they lined the entire viewing area…”
Tribute Video
The most personal addition to any service is to create a tribute video, which truly reflects and celebrates their life. Show your treasured photographs starting from little girl growing up, her wedding, a new mother and her love of her grandchildren. Each relationship is highlighted and celebrated. Backgrounds reflect important parts of their life and the music elevates the entire presentation to a moving and emotional experience.
“I never saw my grandmother as a young woman in love, until I saw her tribute video….what an amazing way to honor her…”
Personalized Markers & Monuments
Our staff will help you to design a personalized memorial stone that can reflect the lifestyle or special interests of a loved one and serve as a lasting tribute. We conveniently offer the finest granites and superior workmanship at affordable prices.
We work closely with Design Memorial to create a lasting memorial stone.
“I didn’t want my husband’s stone to be like every other stone….Coyle spent hours with me creating a unique and lasting tribute.”
Photo Collage Cards
We can create a photo collage card that can represent the most significant people and times in your loved one’s life. It is like sharing their story with every visitor that comes. It also gives information on how to access their online tribute.
“The Collage cards really captured the spirit of Jason’s life, you could see him grow from baby to man right before your eyes, and every visitor could take one home!”
Dove or Balloon Release
Add a personalized touch to the final farewell of a loved one’s committal service with a dove or balloon release.
“Grandma always spoke of the peace she found in her faith…Coyle helped create a ceremony with an entire peace theme, from the music, readings right to the dove release at the graveside….everything was perfectly peaceful.”
