When a loved one dies at home or in a place that isn't a healthcare facility, you'll need to contact emergency personnel before they can be taken into our care. If your loved one was under medical care, it's a good idea to call their physician as well. If your loved one dies in a healthcare facility, they will notify the proper authorities, including the funeral home you have chosen to care for your loved one if they know that information.

Girrbach Funeral Home was an answer to prayer and an enormous help during an intense time of grief for our family. Dale and his wife Sandy helped guide us through the unfamiliar process of planning a funeral for our father. Not only were they professional, accommodating, practical, and affordable but the services they offered brought dignity, beauty, and respect to our loved one. The video memorial video they helped us make was easy to create and a beautiful keepsake. The visitation space is elegant and comfortable. And the funeral services at our church was exactly what we needed. We would highly

I recently lost my mother and turned to Girrbach Funeral Home to make the final arrangements. Dale was very kind and sincere in his mannerism to convey his condolences. He took the lead and was very helpful in the initial stages of the process.
In our first face to face meeting, Dale was very straightforward and was very open about everything. The way everything was presented made it very easy to make decisions.
The viewing and funeral service ran smoothly. The family had only great things to say about how my mother was presented and how well everything ran.
I love my mom and I will
