Our Services
- Arrangement Conference
This meeting between you and the funeral director serves as the foundation
for creating a meaningful funeral. During this conference, the funeral
director will gather important information about the person who died
and help you make funeral choices.
- Visitation
The visitation is a time for family and friends to support one another
in their grief. Often the body is present in an open or unopened casket,
allowing those who loved the person who died to acknowledge the reality
of the death and to have the privilege of saying goodbye. Receiving
friends through a visitation activates the family’s support system and
allows people to express their concern and love for each other.
- Procession
The funeral procession from the service to the gravesite is usually
led by the hearse containing the casket. The procession is a symbol
of mutual support and a public honoring of the death. Mourners accompany
one another to the final resting place of the person who died.
- Burial
How a body will be cared for after a death is an important decision.
Today, most people in America are buried or entombed. People select
burial based on a number of factors including the desire to keep with
tradition or, in some cases, for religious or cultural reasons.
- Entombment
Some people prefer entombment, which means the body is buried in an
aboveground monument such as a mausoleum.
- Cremation
Cremation is a meaningful option when accompanied by visitation time
beforehand, a memorial service, a committal or scattering ritual or,
ideally, all three.
- Bronze Memorials
We have a complete selection of cast
bronze memorials.
