“Traditions
Are The Touchstones For Life’s Most Important Events”
Traditional funeral services are those that closely follow a pattern
or tradition established by one’s cultural customs or religious
beliefs. These services typically include a time for the deceased’s
family to gather for a visitation and viewing period at the funeral
home, many times receiving friends during this time. These services
generally include a funeral at a church or our chapel with the loved-one
present in a casket. A procession to a cemetery for burial or entombment
follows the funeral ceremony. Traditional services are usually public
ceremonies, but can be private at the family’s request.

Regardless
of whether you choose a Traditional Service or one involving Cremation,
our duty to you is to create a meaningful service that is personalized
to your wants and needs and that reflects the life of your loved-one.
There is a growing trend to incorporate hobbies and interests of the
deceased’s life into the ceremony, honoring and celebrating the
life that was lived. These services often include testimonials and
stories shared by family and friends; photographs taken throughout
the life of the deceased are often displayed as are elements of the
person’s vocation and hobbies, such as hunting, fishing, golfing,
gardening, motorcycling. These items are brought to the church or
our chapel and displayed during the visitation and service to commemorate
the loved-one’s life. Music that was favored by the deceased
is often played during these times as well. Memorial services are
often held in non-traditional settings, such as backyards, parks,
golf courses, lakes, bars and lodges. Remember that any service we
help you create will be arranged with the utmost care, dignity and
respect.
