A free funeral program template makes life a little easier for people that find themselves in the unfortunate circumstances of dealing with death. We all know death is an inevitable fact of our existence but it is still often an unexpected event fraught with emotion and difficulty.

A free funeral program template is there to help a family member suffering from the loss of their loved one stay busy in the act of honoring and paying tribute to the deceased. The program is a keepsake for all that cared for them to take home from the funeral. Making one can be a cathartic process.

We’ll give you ten good resources, along with quick links, to help you with this task, in order that you might find one that best suits the tone and style you’d like the program to contain. As you’ll see below, there is a certain amount of latitude in terms of format, design, and room for images in the resources given.
