There are a number of places on the Internet where you can create funeral programs, both from scratch and using templates. Most funeral programs and brochures are designed in a similar way, which is why multiple sites have created simple-to-use templates. You could leave this task up to the funeral directors, as mentioned earlier, or you could use one of many templates and publication sites, as well as software programs. While the funeral home director may be able to assist in creating the program through the funeral home, there are ways that you can build it online independently.

You can create a complete program using Microsoft Word, or you can make a rough draft of it and hand it off to your funeral director. Just like you would create the funeral program using MS Word, you will have to find a template compatible with Google Docs. Apple Mac computers have various pieces of software that will assist in creating funeral programs, or using funeral program templates.

You may also be able to make the funeral brochure yourself using editing or graphics software. If you are experienced in using design programs, Adobe Photoshop may be an option as well. You will not have to open Photoshop or download the design program every time.
