CUSTOMIZING THE TRIBUTE

We are committed to memorializing each life with dignity and distinction

For centuries, funerals have helped us say goodbye. No matter what kind of ceremony you are planning, it helps to understand the parts of a meaningful service. Each element serves a unique purpose and plays an important role. When you put the elements together, you create a ceremony deserving of the special life that was lived.

Catering & Receptions

Gathering With Loved Ones

Food provides nourishment and comfort unlike anything else. Memories of holiday meals, birthday dinners and secret family recipes create a special bond between the people and the food we love. We can help you celebrate that love by sharing those food favorites in a relaxed gathering.

Online Funerals & Virtual Gatherings

Bring loved ones together virtually with Viewneral® Services to memorialize and eulogize the deceased. Invite family and friends to participate in services, personalized by the family with full interaction and the support needed during these difficult times.

Eulogies & Readings

Remembered & Meaningful

The eulogy can be delivered by a clergy person, a family member or a friend of the person who died. Instead of a traditional eulogy delivered by one person, you may choose to ask several people to speak and share their memories. There is also a growing trend toward having people attending the funeral stand up and share a memory of the person who died. This works well, especially at smaller or less formal gatherings.

Fondest Memories Program

Sharing Memories

Families and friends attending the service will have an opportunity to complete a simple note card reflecting their fondest memory of your loved one before placing it in the basket. After the service, we collect the cards and present them to the family. Our Fondest Memories Remembrance Program is offered free of charge as a valuable, extended level of caring service to help our families find closure with the loss of their loved one and to begin the healing process.

Table Displays

Showcase Your Loved Ones Passions

Many families bring in personal items to showcase their loved one's passions or hobbies (fishing, gardening, sports, art, etc.), as well as framed photographs and family albums. These tabletop displays give mourners a good place to gather and share memories during a visitation or gathering.
