Services
A community gathering, visitation and personalized tribute that occurs prior to cremation. A community gathering following cremation. A meaningful program invites family and friends to visit and reflect on the moments they shared with your loved one. A small gathering and informal identification takes place in a private setting and allows the opportunity to say goodbye prior to cremation.
Rituals are symbolic experiences that help us, together with our families and friends, express our deepest thoughts and feelings about life's most important events. For example, birthday parties honor the passing of another year in life. Weddings publicly affirm the private love shared by two people.
Funerals are inconvenient. Taking a few hours out of your week to demonstrate your love for the person who died and your support for survivors is not an inconvenience, but a privilege. Funerals are only for religious people. Non-religious ceremonies are also appropriate and healing. Funeral should reflect what the loved one wanted.
For centuries, funerals have helped us say goodbye. No matter what kind of funeral ceremony you are planning, it helps to understand the parts of a meaningful funeral. Each element serves a unique purpose and plays an important role. When you put the elements together, you create a ceremony deserving of the special life that was lived.
Receiving friends through a visitation activates your support system and allows others to express their concern and love for you. Having a visitation encourages you to openly and honestly mourn the death. Friends and family will remember you invited them and often stay more available to you in the months that follow the death.
