Merchandise
For traditional burial services you will need to select and purchase a casket and an outer burial container (vault). For cremation services you will select a permanent container for the cremated remains. For those families choosing to have a visitation/funeral service prior to cremation we offer the use of a ceremonial casket, eliminating the need to purchase a casket.
You will be asked to select printed materials – guest register book, memorial folders, etc. We will show you different designs for you to select from. You will also be asked if you want the funeral home to order family flowers (casket spray and/or lid piece).
All caskets and merchandise are priced separately – meaning the price you see for the casket is for the casket itself with no other items included.
We are proud to be the funeral home in our community to utilize local, Clay County casket and vault suppliers.
