Our Services
This has been designed to meet the requests of families that do not want or need all the components of a full service traditional funeral. You may be one who doesn't need to have an open casket viewing. You may not want calling hours or a wake.
This does not offer or include viewing the deceased (no embalming); nor a wake. If a church service is selected, people will assemble at the church at the time of the funeral
Our contemporary funeral intends to make the ceremonies surrounding a death less drawn out, yet dignified, while still
accommodating the religious preferences of the deceased prior to burial or cremation

If it is necessary for someone to view the deceased for identification purposes we will accommodate you.
