Bannan Funeral Home
The experienced and dedicated staff of Bannan Funeral Home is committed to the care and service of all members in our communities who are experiencing a death. We are devoted to be responsive to the needs of the living while providing professional care for the deceased with the dignity and respect that has been entrusted to us.

The quality of our care is based on the dignity of human life, not on an individual's culture, belief or financial state. As Funeral Directors we provide a continuum of service, not only to meet the needs of a family at the time of death, but also serving their needs prior to and following any death.

Today there are many choices available to us concerning pre-arrangements. Many adults desire to make their own funeral arrangements. Their desire is to help alleviate remaining family members many of the decisions required at the time of death, and also to have the type of funeral that would reflect their desires and lifestyle.
When it comes to your final arrangements, shouldn't you make the decisions? The arrangements you make will reflect your exact wishes and desires. Pre-arranging your own service will help to ease the burden of your loved ones. It will also alleviate any questions, problems or differences, which can occur among family members.
