Meeting With the Funeral Home

Within the first 24 hours of a death occurring, you will need to meet with our funeral home to begin the final arrangements. This will be a difficult time for you and your loved ones. Our funeral home staff will be there to guide you in making decisions and help make this difficult time a little bit easier.

Who Will Go With You?

One decision that will need to be made when a death has occurred is who will go with you to the funeral home. Do you have a list of people that are available within the first 24 hours to make the final arrangements?

Who Will Make the Decisions?

Deciding on your loved one's final goodbye will be challenging but not impossible. Our funeral home will help you in providing the answers to questions you may have. We will help you understand what is involved in planning a funeral and be there to support you in any way that you need. Something you will need to think about is who will be making the decisions? Will it be you? Will it be someone with you at the funeral home?

Who Else is Involved in the Arrangements?

Does the deceased have children, friends, family that would like to be a part of arranging the funeral? Do you know how the deceased felt about funerals or what their final wishes were? You and your loved ones know the deceased best, and we will work with you to help in celebrating a life lived.

Do you have the information gathered for the paperwork?

When a death occurs, it is a legal matter that requires paperwork. To better prepare yourself for the arrangement at the funeral home, it may be helpful to gather documents needed. Below is a list of documents that may be needed or helpful when a death has occurred:

  • Life Insurance Policies
  • Beneficiary Designations
  • Last Will and Testament and any Codicils
  • Social Security card/information
  • Birth Certificate
  • Marriage License
  • Military Discharge (DD214)
  • Cemetery documents

If you need assistance, please contact us.
