Description: Immediate Burial: Immediate Burial means that your loved Ones physical remains will be buried or entombed without a public service or gathering.Visitation: Visitation (also called a viewing, wake or calling hours ) allows family and friends to gather in a room with the departed loved one (in an open or closed casket) and gives everyone the opportunity to say goodbye and offer their support and sympathy to the bereaved.Funeral or Memorial Services can take place at a funeral home, in a church, or even at your home. The service is a ceremony which serves to celebrate, honor, and remember the life of the deceased. Whether traditional or unique, both the visitation and the funeral service can be personalized to reflect the individuality of your loved one.Graveside, Chapel, or Committal Services are held at the cemetery, and allow family and friends to be present as their loved one are transferred to his or her final disposition through ground burial.W""hen a family chooses burial, the funeral service is traditionally designed to involve three distinct phases: visitation, the funeral, and the burial service. These generally follow the casket from the funeral home through the final burial at a cemetery. While this arrangemnt works for some families, its not the only option available and it might not be the ideal solution for others. Well work with you understand your needs and create the perfect plan for you and your loved one.
