Important Information on Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The health of our client families and our employees has always been a priority; it is even more so today based on the national emergency concerning COVID-19.

Based on the recommendations and guidelines provided by the CDC and the National Funeral Directors Association, we are implementing an action plan that may impose limits on certain requests as they relate to funeral and memorial services.

As always, we will do everything in our power to ensure the life of a loved one is honored and remembered in a dignified manner. Be assured we will handle each family's request individually and will do all we can to maintain a safe and healthy environment.

Please continue to follow the guidelines outlined by medical professionals and if you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding this, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Grief Support

When a loved one's funeral service is over, our Ministry does not end...

Recently we partnered with Domani for Grief to further offer support and guidance to our families that have experienced a loss.

We know from personal experience how difficult it can be to find what you need following the death of a loved one. Which resources are best? Which ones can you trust? That’s why we partnered with Domani for Grief, a platform created with a single goal in mind: to provide in one place the best and most trusted resources, support, and information available to begin the healing process.

Please watch the video below to learn about Domani and hear their message.

In addition, we have provided some helpful grief support links below:
