Should I bring my children to the funeral service?
The answer to this question is based on your own judgment of the situation. Is your child old enough to understand death? Will the funeral service mean anything to them, or will they be better off at home? Children need to express their grief but it's up to you to determine if they should come in the end. Prior to the funeral, be sure to explain to your child what they will see and experience, so they are not surprised.
Can we have a viewing if my loved one was an organ donor or had an autopsy?
Yes. Organ donation and autopsies do not affect your ability to have an open-casket viewing.
If we choose cremation, can we still have a viewing and a funeral service?
Absolutely! We think a viewing is beneficial for families because it is a way they can honor and remember their loved one. The cremation can occur before or after the funeral service based on the family's preferences. The way you celebrate your loved one is completely up to you, and we are here to help you every step of the way.
Is embalming required by law?
No, except in rare situations. Though, most funeral homes have a policy that they will not allow a public viewing without embalming. If you do not want to use embalming, most often we offer a private viewing before the cremation with a little preparation without embalming.
