Personalized Options Information

Personalized Service Options

Our experience has shown us that many of today's families want more than the standard funeral service. This can be done by bringing more of the personality, lifestyle, and history of your loved one into the arrangements. By creating a theme, staging the event around a favorite life experience or even a hobby, a personalized service can become more meaningful and memorable.

If a personalized service interests your family, we suggest you consider the following questions:

  • Was there a special life experience they were proud of?
  • What did your loved one like to do, did they have a hobby that was important to them?
  • What was he or she like as an individual?
  • What was their profession and how did that shape their life?
  • Was your loved one spiritual?
  • Was he or she proud of their cultural or ethnic heritage? 

Let Us Help You Create a Special Experience.

Using the above six questions as our guide, we will spend time with you to create a personalized service for your loved one. We want to help you to be as creative as you desire, and whether we've done it before or it's something new, we'll figure out how to make that happen.

Tribute Videos

Your treasured family photographs are blended with beautiful graphic images and music, to create a moving cinematic video. It easily becomes an integral part of any funeral or memorial gathering, and once the funeral is but a memory, the video becomes a family keepsake. We can also make copies as gifts for family and friends.

Personalization
