About

Our Story

We are committed to helping families in our community move beyond their immediate grief into acceptance and healing. When you lose a loved one, it’s a time for grief and mourning, yet we prefer to think of it as a time for reflection, appreciation, and even celebration as you recognize and honor your loved one’s unique memories. This belief is reflected in everything we do to make your loved one’s funeral special, from the way we conduct our services…to the amenities we offer that will make this day truly unique. Serving as an integral part of the community, we are dedicated to honoring, sharing, and preserving the incredible life story of your loved one.

Plan Ahead

About Planning Ahead
Losing somebody you love is one of the hardest moments of your life. Add sudden logistical and financial decisions and the pain only intensifies. Advance funeral planning is the key to creating the positive end-of-life experience your loved ones deserve.

Why Plan Ahead?
Most of us prepare for what is possible, but seldom for the inevitable. Today, more and more people are arranging their final wishes in advance of death. Pre-arranged and/or pre-funded funeral, cremation and cemetery arrangements considerably ease a family’s burden when death occurs.

Lunch & Learns
A Lunch and Learn Seminar is a casual and informative way to explore what pre-planning final wishes is all about.
