Lacanne Family Funeral Services

LaCanne Family Funeral Services has been serving Minnesota area families for years. We are honored to be a part of the rich history of this community and plan to be a part of it for many years to come.

The following accounts are derived from old Windom newspaper articles which are on microfilm at the Cottonwood County Historical Society, old obituaries on file at the Anderson-Schmidt-LaCanne Funeral Home, and from the researcher's personal knowledge as learned over the years in conversations with some of the area's "old timers", many of whom are no longer with us.

Planning a funeral can be overwhelming, but you are not alone in this. We're here to support you throughout this journey and make this process one of love, healing, and life celebration. Below is some information to help you get started, but you can contact us at any time if you need help.

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.

Planning a funeral service can be a very difficult process for families who have just lost a loved one. But it's important to provide those who are grieving with a supportive environment in which they can begin to find closure, say goodbye, and come to terms with the loss.

Gathering with friends and family gives everyone the opportunity to connect, share memories, offer words of sympathy, and create a lasting network of comfort and support as they start the journey toward healing.Immediate burial means that your loved one will be buried or entombed without a public service or gathering.

Personalization isn't just about honoring your loved one's individuality. It also allows family and friends to feel connected to the services and the life being honored. We work closely with you and your family to get to know your loved one's life story so we can make their services as personal as possible.

The LaCanne Family Funeral Service professionals will help you create a cemetery monument that represents a personal and meaningful memorial to commemorate the life of a loved one. Although gravestones have changed over time, the personalization of a grave site is an age-old tradition that continues.
