MEMORIAL SERVICE: |
When cremation, direct burial or anatomical donation are chosen we will additionally prepare and file local obituary notices and conduct a memorial service. (Cash advance items such as clergy honorarium, cemetery fees and paid newspaper notices are not included in this price.) |

EMBALMING: |
Except in special cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary or required if you select certain funeral arrangements such as a visitation. If you do not want embalming you usually have the right to choose an arrangement which does not require you to pay for it, such as a direct cremation or direct burial. |
