In the context of a St. Peter Life Plan, a "Tribute" refers to a highly personalized and solemn memorial service ceremony provided during the wake—traditionally held on the last night of the viewing—designed to honor and celebrate the life of the deceased.
While the plan itself covers the concrete components (like the casket, embalming, and chapel logistics), the Endless Tribute / Memorial Tribute acts as the emotional heart of the program provided by St. Peter Chapels.
Here is what the St. Peter Tribute generally entails:
1. The Memorial Tribute Ceremony
Usually organized and conducted by a St. Peter funeral home representative or chapel staff on the final evening before the interment (burial or inurnment). It serves as a formal final farewell that transitions the family from the mourning of the wake toward peaceful closure.
2. Core Elements of the Tribute Package
When utilizing a St. Peter Life Plan at their accredited chapels, the comprehensive viewing experience includes specialized tribute touches:
Video / Digital Tribute: A commemorative slide presentation or video montage showcasing treasured photographs, milestones, and memories of the planholder, giving visitors a glimpse into their fulfilled life.
Flower & Prayer Offering: A coordinated moment where family members, relatives, and representatives offer final prayers, words of remembrance, and symbolic flowers.
Personalized Stationery & Keepsakes: Inclusion of a dedicated Guest Registry (guest book) and customized Thank You/Acknowledgement Cards distributed to friends and relatives who paid their respects.
Aesthetic Memorial Touches: Setup of a personalized Portrait Tarpaulin, a specialized Announcement Board, and carefully arranged lighting, carpets, and drapery to elevate the dignity of the chapel room.
3. Digital Extensions: E-Burol
For families with relatives living abroad or in distant provinces who cannot attend the physical wake, the tribute extends digitally via E-Burol. This allows loved ones to join the viewing and the last-night tribute online, ensuring the entire community can participate in honoring the deceased.
In short, it is St. Peter's structured way of ensuring that the final night of the wake is transformed into an organized, stress-free, and deeply dignified celebration of a life well-lived.
