Our commitment to you and your family begins the moment after the initial request for our services. As a family owned and operated service, we are proud to have a staff that gives careful attention to your wishes and ensures each detail is fulfilled.   Traditional Funeral Service This is the most commonly selected package that we offer. This package includes, the night before the funeral there would be visitation generally in the evening with the casket present. This gives an opportunity for family and friends to gather and give their support. The service itself is normally the following day either in the chapel of the funeral home or in another facility, chosen by the family. The ceremony is intended to celebrate and remember the life of the person who died and can be made as personal and meaningful as the family wishes. A funeral often consists of scripture reading, prayers, a eulogy, sometimes a sermon, and often times, music. After the funeral there is a procession to the cemetery, for a committal service. The committal service is usually held at the graveside and is a brief service. Frequently, there is a reception or gathering to follow at a church, community building, or the family’s home at the conclusion of the services.   Full Service Without Visitation This is a package that is also frequently selected.
