FAQ

What’s the difference between cremation and a traditional burial?

Cremation involves respectfully reducing the body to ashes, which can be kept, scattered, or buried. A traditional burial includes a viewing or funeral service followed by interment in a cemetery. Many families choose cremation for its simplicity, flexibility, and affordability.

Can we still have a funeral or memorial service if we choose cremation?

Absolutely. Cremation does not limit your options for honoring a loved one. You can have a full funeral service before cremation, or hold a memorial service afterward with the urn or keepsake present.

What is preplanning, and why is it important?

Preplanning allows you to make your funeral or cremation arrangements in advance. This ensures your wishes are carried out, locks in today’s prices, and relieves your family of emotional and financial stress later.

Do you offer final expense insurance or payment plans?

Yes. We offer final expense insurance and flexible payment options to help families plan ahead or cover unexpected costs. Payment plans are available through a third-party provider for those who qualify. Our team can help you explore affordable coverage and financing options that fit your needs.

What are my options for personalized memorials or keepsakes?

We offer a variety of ways to celebrate your loved one’s life — from personalized jewelry and engraved urns to custom caskets, video tributes, and photo displays. Every detail can be tailored to reflect their personality and legacy.

What does a graveside service include?

A graveside service is held at the burial site and can include prayers, readings, music, or military honors. It’s often a more intimate way to say goodbye surrounded by close family and friends.

How do transportation services work?

We handle all transportation with care — including transferring your loved one from the place of passing to our facility, to the service location, and finally to the cemetery or crematory. We also assist with national and international shipping if needed.

Can you help with national or international shipping of remains?

Yes. Our staff is experienced in coordinating both domestic and international shipping. We handle all necessary paperwork, permits, and transportation to ensure your loved one is transferred safely and respectfully.

Do you provide grief counseling or support after the service?

Yes. We understand that healing takes time. We offer grief support resources, referrals for counseling, and follow-up services to help families cope after their loss.

How can we personalize a service to reflect our loved one’s life?

From custom music, flowers, and décor to photo slideshows, video tributes, and personalized urns or jewelry — we help families create meaningful tributes that truly capture their loved one’s spirit.
