The Graveside Service can be another selection. This can follow a visitation at the funeral home. Your loved one would then be transferred to the cemetery where a graveside ceremony could take place followed by the burial.

The Cremation Service is another type of selected offering. This service will be just like a Funeral Service except cremation will follow instead of the burial. This can be accommodated by the use of a cremation casket (casket that is designed to be cremated) or even a rental casket may be used. Following the viewing, service or ceremony, and eventual cremation, the cremated remains can be buried, properly scattered, or returned to the family for safekeeping. Urns are used to hold the cremated remains. Urns can be constructed out of basic materials like cardboard or plastic or constructed out of more protective materials like basic and semi-precious metals, ceramics, and woods.

A Memorial Service is one where the body is not present and is usually held at the church, funeral home, or other location. Viewing of your loved one is a very important step in acknowledging that the death has occurred. Having some type of service or ceremony is also a key ingredient to a healthy recovery of a loss due to a death.
