All aspects relating to the funeral are handled by our family

so you and your family will have peace of mind during a difficult time.

COVID-19

We understand the importance of attending funeral visitations and services to personally offer your condolences to a family who has recently lost a loved one. However, we have to obey the recommendations provided by our government and state funeral board officials by enforcing the restrictions of no public gatherings larger than 10 people.

Although a hug, kiss, or a handshake can mean the world to family who is grieving a loss, it is not the only way to offer condolences. A phone call, text message, card, or even as simple as leaving a comment on our website’s tribute wall can truly mean so much to the family.
