Funeral Service

There are several options, each designed to honor your loved one and provide comfort and support to family and friends:

Traditional Funeral Service: A special ceremony or gathering held to honor, remember, and celebrate the life of a loved one who has passed away. Visitation is optional and encouraged. It offers an opportunity for loved ones to come together and begin the healing process.

Celebration of Life/Memorial Ceremony: A more flexible and creative way to commemorate your loved one, allowing you to honor their unique personality and life in a heartfelt manner.

Graveside Funeral Service: A peaceful and intimate gathering at the final resting place, which can be held on its own or alongside a traditional service or celebration of life.

Direct Burial or Cremation: A simpler option that does not include a formal service. We still encourage considering a gathering to remember your loved one and offer a space for family and friends to support one another.

Burial

Burial can be a deeply meaningful way to honor a loved one's life. For those who choose cremation, ashes may be gently laid to rest in a burial space, often marked with a headstone or memorial plaque. Some families find comfort in keeping or scattering the ashes, cherishing personal moments of remembrance. Above-ground burial, known as entombment, offers another heartfelt option, where the casket is placed within the serene embrace of a mausoleum. Each choice reflects the love and care that families hold close, creating a lasting tribute to their cherished one.

Cremation

Cremation is a respectful and meaningful way to honor a loved one’s life while offering an alternate way to create a personalized tribute. It allows families the freedom to choose how and where to memorialize their loved one, whether through keeping the ashes in a special urn, scattering them in a cherished location, or placing them in a final resting place. With its simplicity and thoughtful options, cremation provides a comforting path for remembrance and healing during a difficult time.

Veterans

Military funeral honors are a solemn and heartfelt tribute to the dedication and sacrifice of service members. These ceremonies often include the playing of “Taps,” a rifle detail, and a color guard, as uniformed service members carefully fold and present the United States flag to the grieving family. In some cases, death benefits mat provide meaningful support, helping to cover burial, funeral, and transportation expenses. When a loved one is laid to rest in a national cemetery, families may also receive assistance with burial costs, the plot, and the dignified transport of their loved one’s remains. These gestures ensure that every veteran is honored with the respect and care they deserve.
