INTRODUCTION OF NEW VIDEO TRIBUTE PROGRAM
Stark-Welin Funeral Directors is pleased to announce the addition of our new Video Tribute program. Since its' founding in 1888, Stark-Welin Funeral Directors has continued to provide the most personal and meaningful funeral services available. The addition of our new Video Tribute program is yet another result of that mission and is an exclusive offering to the families we serve.
The Video Tribute program allows us to create a memorable video collage of pictures that will celebrate the living of a life. To the collection of photos provided by the family, we will add music and use transitional interludes to fade from one picture into another. The Video Tribute re-lives cherished memories and celebrates a life that was lived. It creates a keepsake video for family and loved ones to enjoy for years to come. The Video Tribute is one of the most engaging and compelling memorial services we offer.
Your Video Tribute will open with a tasteful moving introduction celebrating the life of your loved one. Watch with fondness as early childhood, the discovery of youth, the excitement of adulthood, the responsibility of working years, family, vacations, retrospection of retirement and cherished life photos slowly appear through the customized scenes. Photos of your loved one appear creatively before your eyes as you relive those beautiful memories, all set to a wonderfully moving musical arrangement.
Your Video Tribute will help you remember; a key element in the healing process of grief. It will assist you and your family in moving from a relationship of presence to a relationship of memory in the comfort of your own home. What better way to pay tribute to your loved one than sharing on video the wonderful moments, which made their life so special. What a beautiful and lasting remembrance to pass on to other generations, especially the younger ones, when the memories are starting to fade.
The Video Tribute is a memorial that you can take home and play anytime you like, share with family who were unable to attend the service or watch on the Internet at our website www.starkwelin.com .
Stark-Welin Funeral Directors provide the Video Tribute at "no additional cost" for all families who wish to accept the service at their time of need. Families who have accepted this offer have expressed to us how meaningful it was.
We invite you to visit the obituary link on our web site and view a Video Tribute by clicking on the obituary you wish to view and then clicking on the "view video tribute" link. Celebrate in the memory of your loved one.
CAN MUSIC FROM A CD BE USED IN A VIDEO TRIBUTE
The disappointing answer to this request is NO. Our funeral homes BMI, ASCAP, SESAC and SOCAN licenses allow us to play music in our funeral home over our sound system, but do not include the right to synchronize music to produce a video or publish it on the Internet. Unfortunately, popular music found on a CD and often times requested by the family cannot be used to produce a Video Tribute unless the appropriate music licenses have been negotiated with both the recording company and the composer.
All of the music used by Stark-Welin Funeral Directors, in the production of our Video Tribute, is fully licensed allowing us to play the Video Tribute in our funeral home, on the Internet or make copies of the Video Tribute to be given to the family and their friends.
