Service Options

Traditional Services

The term "traditional service" is often used to describe funeral services with the deceased present and visitation prior to burial or cremation.

A service, religious or non-religious in nature, is often held at the funeral home or church. Prior to services, there is usually a visitation period where the family can gather and receive friends. The casket can be opened or closed, depending on the wishes of the deceased and the family. If Earth burial is desired, there is usually a procession to the cemetery where burial will take place.

Another option is a "graveside service". This is a simple burial service held at the cemetery without a visitation period preceding it.

Cremation Options

As the request for cremation services increase, your options also increase. Cremation services are as unique and personal as the person you are honoring. Our staff provides many different services which are innovative and personal. We also have cremation merchandise available such as urns, keepsake jewelry and ceremonial containers on display. Offering families the opportunity to arrange and choose services specially designed for them will help create a more meaningful tribute.

Visitation or Gathering

Visitations play an important role in the healing process. It provides a time for family and friends to gather, share memories and to show their support for one another. The ceremonial container or memorial urn may be present with memorabilia items and pictures displayed. Visitations can be facilitated at a church, funeral home or personal residence and usually precede some type of service.

Memorial Service

A memorial service is held when the family does not desire to have a traditional service. When this option is selected, the casketed remains are not present. If you choose, the cremated remains may be present in the memorial urn of your choice, which can be personalized if desired. Memorial services may be held at a church, the funeral home or other setting of your choice.
