Services to Consider

Funeral services

A funeral service can include a visitation, ceremony, and committal at the cemetery. Staff can help coordinate timing, transportation, and service details such as readings, music, and clergy or celebrant participation.

Memorial services

A memorial service takes place without the casket present and can be scheduled days or weeks later. Families often choose this option to allow travel time and to focus on sharing stories and remembrance.

Cremation planning

Cremation arrangements may include a memorial, visitation, or a small family gathering. You can discuss choices for an urn, keepsakes, and final placement, such as burial, a columbarium, or scattering where permitted.

Burial arrangements

Burial planning can include selecting a cemetery space, coordinating opening and closing, and choosing a casket or outer burial container when required. The funeral home can help manage needed documents and scheduling.

Pre-planning

Pre-planning lets you record preferences in advance, including service type, music, and burial or cremation choices. It can reduce uncertainty for family members and help you make decisions without time pressure.

Obituaries and paperwork support

After a death, there are many practical steps. Assistance may include writing and publishing an obituary, coordinating death certificates, and helping you understand what information is needed for insurance, benefits, and other notifications.
