Traditional Service
A traditional funeral service includes a viewing or visitation, a formal funeral service (at the funeral home, local
church or location of your choice) and the necessary automotive equipment, such as a hearse to transport the body to the
funeral site and cemetery. It is customary to purchase items such as a memorial register book, memorial folders and
acknowledgement cards. Floral tributes are often displayed and you are encouraged to bring in photographs and other
memorabilia to further personalize the service.
-
A graveside service is held at the burial site. This service may be limited to the immediate family or open to all.
After the service, there are options for a memorial service at the funeral home chapel, church or venue of choice.
-
A memorial service is conducted without the body present and can vary in ceremony and procedures. It can be held at the
funeral home or at a location of your choice.
In order to create a memorial service that is as unique as your loved one, we encourage you to help personalize the
service with memorabilia, photographs and other personal items.
-
