Services
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).
Giving a meaningful, moving eulogy can be a nerve-wracking situation for even the most accomplished public speaker, but it need not be. How can you summarize somebody's life in a few short minutes, while being both somber and funny at the same time? Writing and delivering a eulogy is a therapeutic tool to help deal with your grief, and being chosen to give a eulogy is an honor and should be treated that way.
Like everything in society, funeral etiquette and what is expected of you has evolved over time. As always common sense and good discretion is the best guide to proper funeral etiquette. Here are a few do's and don'ts of funeral etiquette. Express your condolences - It's not easy to come up with the words to offer sympathy to someone who has just lost a loved one.

I had a wonderful experience with Jorge Rivera funeral home. I had lost a dear friend whom had not a single family member and I was clueless where to begin as he left me as next of kin. Marco went above and beyond and explained everything in depth. Any and all of my calls were answered if not returned in a timely fashion. The secretary always offered to place me on hold as she explained Marco was with another family. I choose to leave my number and each time Marco called back by day end if the secretary could not answer my needs. He never left me to feel as though I was asking too many questions

I called in to inquire about a service estimate to better plan as my parents are getting older and
Marco Pérez (The Director) was by far the most helpful person I’ve spoken to in regards to this topic. He went over every little detail and by the end of the call I had a MUCH better understand of what it would take to ensure a proper wake/burial for my parents when the time comes.
Ideally, my parents would live forever... but death is the only thing that is certain in this life.
Thank you to the great team of Rivera Funeral Home especially their director that went above and beyond to answer
