HONORING LIFE™ ORIENTATION
Rituals surrounding life and death have been with us for thousands of years.
These rituals, known today as a visitation/funeral service, a gathering/memorial
service or the contemporary celebration of life, are the social response of
individuals and a community to share in the grieving and healing process.
As a multi-cultural and diverse society we must maintain, if not enhance, these
important social values for the benefit of generations to come.
The Right Choice™ . . . Planning Ahead Today™:
This service eliminates the uncertainty and financial burden when a death occurs.
Furthermore, an additional 4% insurance assignment processing fee often charged
by funeral homes is avoided as well as a delay of the obituary placement and
rendering of services.
The Simple Choice™ . . . Ceremony Service Packages:
This event can be formal or informal, held at our funeral home, your place of
worship or a meaningful location of your choosing.
Both the funeral & memorial service are ways to celebrate life.
The basic difference between the two is the deceased is present at a funeral and
not present at a memorial.
The sanctity of human life is respected and honored by choosing either service.
Graveside services commonly conclude the event.
Cremation and Burial Services:
There are several forms of disposition including cremation and burial.
When cremation is selected, one then decides where the final place of honor will
be, such as a cemetery.
Cremation takes place either after a funeral service or before a memorial service.
Both respect the sanctity of human life.
Cremation and Burial Merchandise:
We have one of the largest and most complete selection areas of merchandise in
the funeral profession today.
