A funeral service is a special time for family and friends to comfort one another, begin to find healing and celebrate a life well lived. Whether you choose burial or cremation, you can hold a funeral service to honor your loved one. We are happy to provide a traditional funeral or something completely unique. Many cultures and religions have special funeral traditions and we will do our best to accommodate your requests. This is a moment for you and your family and we are honored to help you in any way that we can.
Just like a funeral service, a memorial service is a time to remember your loved one. This can be held shortly after death or weeks later, with or without an urn present. What’s important is that it creates a time and a place for family and friends to gather together and support one another, share memories and pay their respects. We can hold a memorial service at our funeral home, the final resting place or at your home.
A casket burial is a traditional service and there are many options you can choose from. We can provide an immediate burial without a public service; a visitation, viewing or wake with a closed or open casket; a funeral service at our funeral home, church or private home and a graveside service at a cemetery. You can choose whether you’d like a public or private service or a combination. It is entirely up to you how you wish to pay your respects.
Cremation has become a popular option for many people because it can be more flexible as to where and when you hold a service. You can have a traditional funeral service before a cremation or a memorial service at any time with or without the urn present. You can keep the urn, scatter the ashes or have the urn buried in a grave or columbarium where we can hold a service. Whether you choose burial or cremation, we’re here to offer you a meaningful ceremony.
Another option for the final disposition of your loved one can be donation to science. Whether donating to advance medical science with a whole body donation or donating for specific research, families can still have meaningful viewings and healing services and celebrations.
Sometimes the pain of grief, time challenges, and other issues cause people to consider not having an event to remember their loved one. However, the permanency of death is challenging and to heal people must find significance – the significance of their loss and the significance of the person who has passed.
When a person has not planned ahead, families are left to guess what their loved one would have wanted and bear the burden of the planning, both financially and emotionally. Working with a good funeral director helps to relieve some of this pressure, but planning ahead does even more so.
