What is the purpose of a funeral?
A funeral or memorial service provides an opportunity for the living to show respect for the deceased and pay tribute to their life. It provides a framework to freely and openly express our beliefs, feelings, and thoughts about the death of our loved one. It gives us permission to grieve our loss, share in solidarity, and gain strength from others who are experiencing the same loss.
What are the choices for funeral services?
The four main types of funeral services include the traditional funeral service, the memorial service, the committal service, and the affirmation or celebration of life service.
Can you still have a funeral if you choose cremation?
Yes, cremation or burial is merely the disposition of the body. Funeral services are to honor and remember your loved one, regardless of disposition.
Can I plan in advance if I choose cremation?
Pre-arranging funeral services can be done regardless of the final disposition. Pre-arranging is simply recording your wishes with the funeral home and prefunding if you choose to do so.
What information should I bring to the arrangement conference?
You should bring advance directives, military discharge papers, details on any cemetery property, a recent photograph, and specific information on the deceased including full legal name, address, marital status, Social Security number, date and place of birth, educational history, Armed Forces service dates, occupation, parents' names, and next of kin.
What services do funeral directors perform?
The funeral director's job is to assist the bereaved in various ways to help them through the loss of a loved one. A funeral director provides bereavement and consolation services for the living, in addition to making arrangements for the cremation, burial, and memorial services for the deceased. He fulfills the role of funeral arranger, funeral director, funeral attendant, and embalmer. Major tasks include removal and transfer of the deceased, professional care of the deceased, consulting with family, filing certificates and permits, obtaining death certificates, arrangements with disposition sites, creating obituaries, arranging for clergy, music, flowers, transportation, pallbearers, and special services, directing the funeral service and procession, and assisting with death-related claims and grief counseling.
