Traditional Funeral Services

Traditional Funeral
A traditional funeral provides an opportunity for a family to experience the support of their community of friends, relatives and co-workers. Typically one or more days of visitation time at the funeral home in the presence of the casket (usually anytime between and
3-8 p.m.). Our interconnecting rooms can accommodate gatherings of all sizes. A private time is scheduled for the family prior to receiving members of their community. A funeral service in a church or funeral home chapel is usually followed by a cortege to the local cemetery where a brief service of committal is held.

The components of a traditional funeral include:
~Professional and support staff services for the coordination of arrangements; all required documentation; registration and permits are coordinated as well as the transfer of remains from place of death;
~Assistance with composition of death notices and coordination of publication in local and/or out of town newspaper(s);
~Preparation and/or embalming of the remains in our modern preparation facility; ~Provision of the funeral home, family visiting rooms, complimentary lounges and chapel;
~Family assistance and attendants through the visitation periods;
~Memorial stationery, visitors register, cards to acknowledge acts of kindness and remembrance, after care advisory material and funeral director's proof of death certificates;
~Our fleet of professional cars includes a Cadillac funeral coach, pallbearer vans and lead vehicle,
