Many funeral homes are family run services. It is apparent that the small family-owned funeral homes will continue to do well and are here for the long haul. Acquisition groups, which are buying cemeteries and funeral homes, have not obliterated them.


Your family run funeral home should arrange the services associated with the burial or cremation of the deceased. These include conveying the deceased from the place of death to the funeral home's premises and preparing them for burial or cremation (this may include embalming). The deceased is then laid to rest in a chapel of rest or church.

 

Your funeral home should organize the funeral on behalf of the deceased's family/partner, which includes confirming the date, time and place of the service, in some cases paying cremation or cemetery charges and church fees, providing a hearse to transport the coffin and mourners to the funeral venue and either purchasing a grave or arranging the dispersal of the ashes.

 

Other services will include receiving flowers or acting as a collection point for donations, organizing catering, arranging a headstone or placing the notice of death in the newspaper.

 

Your funeral home can act in an advisory capacity, both before and during the funeral, offering guidance, support and comfort.

 

Your fFuneral homes’ commitment to the family and to personalized service will keep them in the game, even if the big guys can continue charging less by buying caskets and other funeral products at volume discount.
