No, a member of the clergy is not required to conduct a funeral or memorial service. However, if a clergy member is desired, we can arrange for one if you do not already have a minister, as well as ensure the clergy understands your wishes. If you decide not to have a member of the clergy conduct the service, you will need someone to act as master of ceremonies. Sometimes, a family friend can assume this responsibility. Our staff can also act in this capacity, if desired.
