Home Obituaries Frequently Asked Questions

Our Services

Because a funeral service isn't an everyday occurrence or an easy task, most people don't know where to turn first. Call us. Then, if the place of death is not at a medical facility, medical authorities must be notified. We will then call your clergy, if you desire, for your spiritual support and comfort.
We will:

  1. Transfer the deceased to the funeral home and prepare for burial or cremation;
  2. Gather information for and file a death certificate and other legal documents;
  3. Meet with you and your family to help plan funeral arrangements and explain the types of funeral services;
  4. Schedule an appropriate time, place and vitiation and service;
  5. Guide you in other funeral-related selections, such as casket, urn, vault, maker, clothing, flowers, music, programs, displays, and transportation;
  6. Help with paperwork that ranges from obituaries to benefit claim forms:
  7. Notify employers, attorneys, insurance company, banks of the death;
  8. Provide compassionate support before, during, and after the funeral;

When death occurs out of town while traveling, wintering out of state, or using medical service at a distance, call us first. Almost without exception, we can contain the necessary mortuary services at a lower cost and pass along the savings to you. In addition, we make plans for the return home transportation to. We do that for you. You know us and we know what to do.
Our funeral directors can help plan a meaningful. personal ceremony by offering options and guidance through the arrangement process. When planning a funeral, be sure to ask questions and tell us what you'd like.

The decisions are yours, the director's role is merely advisory.
