Memorial Folders

I can't seem to think of the name of the paper people usually hand out at funerals. It usually has the date and sometimes a picture of the dead inside. It's sort of an announcement-style paper, and usually contains a prayer. Do you know what I am talking about?

I believe you are referring to the Memorial Folder which measures approximately 4.5" x 4" and usually contains date of birth, date of death, visitation and service times, place of service and burial, etc.

For a deceased person who was Catholic, often times a Prayer Card is used which is two sided and approximately the size of a playing card. I hope this answers your question.-- Rob Jones
