I just wanted to say how sorry I am for your and your family's loss. It's nice you will have a way to honor him at the wedding.

I didn't do programs so I haven't paid attention to those posts. Sorry! Good Lcuk

We have had a few family members pass as well and instead of putting a list of names in the programs what we have decided to do is actually have a collage photo frame sitting on the gift table. There are 4 different frames on it and in one we will have a page stating "In honor of those who could not be with us." In the other 3 frames we will have a picture of the individual with their relation and years of life under the picture. I personally felt that a list of names was impersonal and came across the frame and the rest just fell into place.

I'm so sorry for your loss.. we lost my FMIL (amazing woman by the way) June 3rd of this year as well as my sister in 2007.. here's a link to what the programs I designed for us look like..

in case it doesn't work it reads

Those we love remain with us,
for love itself lives on.
Cherished Memories never fade,
because one loved is gone.
Those we love can never be,
more than a thought apart.
For as long as there's a memory,
they live on in our heart.

In Memory of

FMIL
and
Sister

and those who can not
be here with us today.
We love you.

hope this helps!

Thank you . I really like that last poem. Thats exactly what I am looking for.
