Traditional Funerals: Honoring Wishes with a Final Goodbye
Traditional funerals hold a special place in our hearts. They offer a timeless way to pay tribute to those who have passed away. These services are customizable to each family’s preferences. Every detail reflects the personality and spirit of your loved one.
Choose if you would like a viewing and whether it should be public or private. Viewings provide an opportunity for family and friends to gather, share memories, and find solace in each other’s company. For an open casket viewing, embalming becomes a necessary step to ensure. The deceased loved one is treated with the utmost care and respect. These viewings are often held the day prior to the burial, allowing loved ones a chance to pay their respects.
On the day of the burial, our services can be held at the funeral home, a church, or a cemetery. Burials typically take place in the morning hours. The funeral procession, led by our dedicated team, leaves the funeral home, creating a solemn and dignified farewell.
