Traditional Funeral Services

Traditional Services


We believe strongly in helping families choose the right service options at an affordable price. Our traditional services offer families experiencing grief a choice on how they want to memorialize their loved one.

Visitation

This time is set aside for family and friends to gather together to say goodbye, while being in the comfort of those closest to them. We can personalize the visitation to be as unique as your loved one with a tribute video, items or displays that were important to your loved one, or simply pictures displayed. We will work with your family to design the perfect gathering experience.


 

Funeral Service

The funeral service can be held in our chapel, a church, or any other venue the family chooses. We work with our families to design a service that honors their loved one with stories, music, or scripture. We also have life celebrants that lead services where clergy may not be chosen. Our celebrants are trained in creating experiences that help start the healing process.


 

Graveside Service

A graveside or committal service is typically held immediately following the funeral service but it can also be a small intimate gathering of those closest to you.


 

 

Values of the Funeral

It is important to remember that the funeral service is not provided for the deceased — but rather to support and comfort the living. In fact, most psychologists agree that a funeral service is the best way of bringing closure to a life that has been lived. It not only helps family and friends move ahead with their lives following a loss, but it also serves as an opportunity to celebrate the life of a loved one.

 

The funeral service allows family and friends to find strength and comfort by gathering together and sharing memories and special times with one another. Gathering at the service allows everyone to be included in the grieving process and most importantly, allows the immediate family to begin the healing  process.

 

Funeral services can be wide ranging from contemporary to traditional and from religious to secular. Music, scripture, poetry, shared memories, stories

and video tributes can be added to make the service unique and memorable. Oftentimes, families choose to set up a table with personal items and

pictures that help acknowledge the accomplishments, interests and personality of the individual. All of these ideas add meaning to the service or immediate family to begin the healing process.
