Traditional Service

The Traditional Service will include a Visitation, Funeral Ceremony and Graveside Service.

We offer casket selection with options
The visitation is typically held the day before the Funeral Ceremony provides an opportunity for family and friends to gather and support each other in their time of grief. The funeral ceremony usually takes place the day following visitation and can be held at the funeral home or a church. The ceremony is intended to celebrate and remember the life of the person who died and can be

 made as personal, meaningful and creative as the family wishes. After the funeral ceremony a graveside service is held. This is usually a brief service, after which the casket will be either lowered into the grave, or placed in the mausoleum. The family can choose if they wish to stay for the lowering or placing.

The Traditional Service generally includes the basic services of the funeral director and staff, transfer of the body to the funeral home, preparation of the body, the use of the hearse and a sedan, care and delivery of floral arrangements, drafting and placement of obituary, coordination with clergy and cemetery, filing of government documents including Social Security and Veteran's Administration, use of facilities, staff and equipment necessary during all aspects of the service.
