What steps are involved in making funeral arrangements?
A funeral or memorial service can be tailored to fit each of our families. Families are invited and encouraged to honor their loved ones in a manor that they feel is meaningful. The funeral director will be your partner in helping you provide a special remembrance. The funeral director will ask a variety of questions that will be used to complete necessary documents, forms and permits. Information about the deceased, such as full legal name, date of birth, place of birth, social security number, usual occupation, legal address, years of education, father’s name, and mother’s maiden name will be needed. The obituary information is usually obtained at this time. The obituary may be a story of the persons life, including the following; fond memories, where the person grew up, place and date of marriage, educational degrees, an employment history, memberships of any clubs or organizations, what the person may have enjoyed most about life, such as hobbies, and of course a list of survivors
