Questions about funerals
What is a funeral?
A funeral is a meaningful gathering where family and friends come together to honor, remember, and say goodbye to someone they love. Whether you choose burial or cremation, it offers a chance to share memories, reflect on a life lived, and find comfort in one another. This time of remembrance plays an important role in the journey toward healing.
Is it possible to customize my funeral service?
Definitely—we encourage personalization. A funeral is a tribute to a unique life, and every celebration should reflect that individuality.
Our team is here to help you explore all the possibilities to create a service that truly honors your wishes, offering many ways to make it distinctively yours.
Can we have a funeral service if we choose cremation?
Absolutely. Choosing cremation doesn’t restrict how you can honor and celebrate your loved one’s life.
We can assist in planning a visitation or viewing before the cremation, and we encourage holding a funeral or memorial service. This allows family and friends to gather, say their goodbyes, and start the healing journey together.
