• Funeral Service: When you are planning a funeral service, you may choose to go full-service with a viewing or visitation before the funeral service. This intimate service gives friends and family the chance to say their final words to the deceased and is open-casket optional. After the funeral service, you may opt for a graveside ceremony at the burial location. If all these events are not your style, you can skip straight to immediate burial with an intimate gathering to keep it simple.

• Cremation Service: Cremations are growing in popularity and are a dignified way to lay your loved one to rest. Direct cremations offer low-cost cremations for families that would like to gather in private to scatter the ashes in a location of importance. Cremations with a memorial ceremony are available for those who want to provide a formal gathering for friends and families from afar to attend and pay their final respects.

• Grief Therapy Dog on Staff: Our Sheepadoodle, Maggie, is on-staff and available upon request. She offers a distraction to the young and old, providing levity and comfort to a sometimes-heavy event. So let our funeral home dog cheer you up or snuggle up close for a tummy scratch.

• Custom Printing: For all of your memorial needs, you can request custom printing for the programs, tributes, or permanent memorialization. Our team can accommodate any requests. What you choose for your loved ones will go down in the history of their lives, so you can make it special with custom printing.

• Mobile Arrangements: Pre-planning funeral services can be done entirely online. Make plans for your final arrangements that may be years in the future. You can revisit the programs at any time to make changes as circumstances change. The password-protected document provides a secure place to make arrangements for any end-of-life service.

• Monuments: When it comes to permanent memorialization, you want to honor your loved one in line with their preferences. Choose among various monuments, large and small, to commemorate the deceased’s life.

• Pet Cremation and Pet Burial: A family pet is beloved by all family members, providing memories from time as a puppy with small children into adulthood. Give your pet the end-of-life service they deserve with pet cremation or pet burial. You can throw a pet.
