What is a Funeral? A funeral is a service where people gather together to express their grief at the death of a loved one and to share with and support others who are also experiencing grief.

A funeral provides an organized opportunity for the family and friends to acknowledge their loss, to state the important role this person had in their life, to recognize the loved one's contributions and accomplishments and to begin to prepare for life without the deceased.A funeral honors the special unique human life that was lived.
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.

I've been looking for an obituary to see if and when someone's funeral was going to take place. The funeral was yesterday but you just now posted her obituary and funeral info. Well I'd give this place no stars but since you did post it even though its after the fact I'll be nice.

Very unprofessional! Messed up my grandmother's obituary after it had already been prewritten for them. Someone took it upon themselves to add words to it that weren't correct. They messed up her name implying that she was married and had the time for viewing the body wrong which caused people to call the family repeatedly to ask if the time had been changed. I feel like they did a rushed job and did not give my grandmother the respect that was due for the preparation of her family viewing her one last time.

That has served my family since 1979. , and the part that I love most is that Terry and the staff has always had their doors open .To the public and anyone else that needed them.
