Live music by children or grandchildren

Ask if they want to offer something they can manage: a short song, a hymn, or a simple tune on piano or guitar.

Rehearse at the venue if there is sound equipment. A trusted adult can sit beside them.

Removing pressure

It does not need to be perfect. Say that the effort matters to you. Offer a way out if someone cannot go ahead at the last moment.

Playing a recording instead is fine if nerves take over.

Meaning for later

Keep the sheet music or a photo of the moment. It belongs to the story of how the family said goodbye.
