We offer a wide choice of services.
No matter what your needs require, we have the professional staff and equipment to meet all of your requests. There are four areas of focus when planning at the time of a death.
They are services, merchandise,
final disposition, and cash advances.
1. Services include the things that we do as a staff. Our basic services of conducting the arrangement conference, planning the funeral or memorial, obtaining the necessary permits and authorizations, placing obituary notices, as well as a proportionate share of our overhead costs of buildings, equipment and 24 hour on call staff.
Specific items include:

2. Merchandise items may include the casket, outer burial container, urn, service folders, register book, and acknowledgement cards. These options can be viewed in the "Merchandise" tab of our website.
- Caskets vary greatly in design and eye appeal. They are made of wood, steel, copper & bronze .
- Outer Burial Containers are what the casket is placed into for burial. They are made of concrete and vary greatly in strength.
3. Final disposition is the difference between earth burial, entombment, cremation, donation or other means. These options are family preference. We can certainly provide more information about each if you wish.
If cremation is your preference, the following link is the cremation authorization that will be required. Along with this family authorization, there is also a requirement for permission from the individuals doctor and the state in which the death occurs.
