Viewing and Service Followed by Cremation
This package is identical to the burial package titled Complete Funeral Service with Casketed Burial, however the only difference is instead of taking the casketed deceased to the cemetery following the conclusion of the funeral service, the deceased is taken to our on-site crematory to be cremated. This package is ideal for those who are interested in a cremation but would like to allow the decedent’s family and friends to have a public viewing first.
Package Includes :
basic services of funeral director and staff, transfer of deceased from the place of death into our care, embalming and complete preparation of the body, dressing, cosmetics, basic hair styling and casketing of the deceased; up to 30 minutes of a private viewing/visitation prior to the public viewing/visitation, up to two hours of viewing/visitation, and funeral service/ceremony. Also included are necessary funeral vehicles, guest book, and thank you cards. Cash advance items, merchandise (if applicable), and crematory fee not included.
