Funerals in the Post-COVID-19 Era
Here are some of the updates for what you might expect with the following services:
​
Claiming your loved one's remains: The process for claiming loved ones' remains has returned to what it was prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is no longer a delay in claiming loved ones' remains, and there is also no longer a delay in the process to proceed to burial, cremation, or other disposition.
​
Funeral services: Funeral rites may be held without limitation at this time. We no longer ask that family members wear surgical masks in order to attend services, though our staff may continue to wear masks at their own discretion.
​
Burials: Most cemeteries have returned to pre-COVID-19 policies and operations. There may be exceptions where a cemetery will limit the number of people who may attend a burial or that they may require surgical masks in order to attend. There is no longer a delay in burying loved ones.
​
Cremations: Crematories have returned to pre-COVID-19 level of operations. There is no longer a delay in cremating loved ones.
​
Making arrangements overall: We are able to make arrangements and plan funeral services with you at your home, in our facility, or several other locations at your convenience. Please, let us know what works for you.
