Funeral Service Trends

The needs and expectations of families are changing and we've responded with funeral service options tailored to these new expectations.

Two generations ago, traditional funerals were common. It was what everyone expected. 

But, as the demand for cremation services increased, there has been a dramatic shift in the types of services available. More families are choosing cremation and holding a memorial service afterwards. Family members and friends still come together to pay their respects to the deceased and find emotional support, but they are doing so in less formal ways.

Today, another funeral service option, the Celebration of Life, has become popular because there are no limits to how, where, and when the life of a loved one can be celebrated.

Thinking About Your Funeral Service Options

The arrangements you make will be influenced by the lifestyle of your deceased family member. The time of year, your budget, and the number of people in attendance are factors worth considering. 


But you don't have to plan it on your own. We're here to help. Our sincerest form of expression is to assist families with memorializing the life of a loved one, and we often have good ideas and practical advice for making the service memorable.
