Create Healing Experiences
In the depth of early grief, you might think that it would be ‘easier’ to just take care of things as simply and as quickly as possible. But easier – especially in this circumstance – simply isn’t better. You must set the stage for the future by giving your family and friends the opportunity to start the healing process.
Traditional Service
Every family is different, and not everyone wants the same type of funeral. Funeral practices are influenced by religious and cultural traditions, costs and personal preferences. These factors help determine whether the funeral will be elaborate or simple, public or private, religious or secular, and where it will be held. They also influence whether the body will be present at the funeral, if there will be a viewing or visitation, and if so, whether the casket will be open or closed, and whether the remains will be buried or cremated. Among the choices you’ll need to make is whether you want one of these basic types of funerals, or something in between.
Limited Graveside Service
Designed for those who want a ground burial or interment of either a casket or an urn containing cremated remains with a service only at the cemetery. Itemized options may be selected at the family’s discretion.
Memorial Service
The same as a traditional service, except the body is not present for the visitation or the funeral. Often considered by those selecting cremation, but it is not limited to those who prefer cremation. The private family viewing explained above also applies here.

With cremation services, we at Salser & Dillard believe you should be able to choose the type of service that you find most meaningful. That’s why our list of services includes many options. We have our own cremation facility and take great care with your loved one.
