We stand behind our reputation and will continue to serve our community with the values instilled by our funeral directors. In 1908 Fred A. Loveridge operated an undertaking business in Cuba. When his son Glen O. Loveridge joined the business in 1918, it became know as F.A. Loveridge and Son. Glenn became the sole owner in 1926 and the firm was operated as the Loveridge Funeral Home.

This section contains useful information about what to do when death occurs, funeral etiquette and frequently asked questions. Family and friends getting together to honor a loved one's life is one of the most important steps in the grieving and healing process. You may opt to have a traditional religious or military service, or as more and more people are doing, you can choose to have a non-traditional 'life celebration'.
No matter if a death is sudden, or if it something that was a long time coming, the loss of a loved one makes us feel emotional and overwhelmed. No amount of preparation can fully prepare you for the loss of a loved one. When you are in a heightened emotional state, even the most basic decisions can seem staggering.
Traditionally, a burial service involves a visitation, followed by a funeral service in a church, or other place of worship. The casket is typically present at both these events, and it is your decision on whether to have the casket open or not. You have the option of having the remains interred (earth burial), or it may be entombed in a crypt inside a mausoleum (above ground burial).
