Clothing

A full complement of clothing is utilized, including undergarments and outer clothes of your choice. Shoes are not needed. For women, a dress or outfit closed at the neckline and long sleeves are desirable. For men, a suit or sport coat is appropriate.

Other Personal Items

Jewelry, eye glasses and religious items (rosary, medals) may be brought it when the arrangements are made, or prior to the service. On the day of the funeral, we will confirm which items you wish to be left in the casket and which are to be removed.

For Cremation

Clothing for cremation would depend on the extent of the services desired before the cremation process. We strongly suggest that any personal items such as jewelry, pictures and other memorabilia be removed prior to cremation as they will be destroyed during the cremation process. These items may, instead, be placed into the urn selected after the cremation has taken place.

Arrangement Appointment Time

To assure availability of one of our directors and to give you the personal attention and time needed to make the arrangements, please call to schedule a convenient time. Although the majority of arrangements are conducted during normal business hours, we are available in the evening and on weekends as well.
