Coordinate with clergy to set the time and place for the service.

Make cemetery arrangements, including helping with selection of a cemetery and spaces if necessary; see that the space is opened and closed.
By offering a selection of caskets, outer burial receptacles (grave liners and vaults), cremation urns, and urn vaults.
By providing a selection of service folders, memorial register books and thank-you cards from which to choose.
With planning post funeral lunch/reception.
By placing the obituary and/or funeral notice in newspapers of your choice on local radio stations and our web page.
By providing you with "memory boards" for visitation/service.
By creating a PowerPoint video, if desired.
