Immediate Burials

This is an alternative where there is no viewing or any type of service or ceremony selected. Embalming is not required by law and is not required by our funeral home due to no public viewing.


These services do not include visitation and funeral ceremony at our funeral home or other facilities, merchandise (i.e., casket, flowers, vault), state sales tax, any auto equipment over 30 miles, obituary in local newspapers, cemetery charges, or state death certificate fee, or cash advances.

Forwarding Remains to Another Funeral Home

This is an alternative that is appropriate for people who travel or happen to live here but want to be buried in another city or state. Our funeral home will take care of the initial request of service and take care of what the family wants us to do before transferring the remains to another facility or funeral home.

This includes:

  • Transfer of remains to funeral home from the place of death (within 30 miles)
  • Embalming and other preparation of the remains; dressing, casketing, cosmetizing
  • Arrangement conference with family or responsible parties
  • Coordination with transferring remains to another funeral home or facility
  • Recording vital statistics and securing necessary permits

If they are retired, they may be touring the country or going south for the winter. Our funeral home will receive the remains from another funeral home or facility where the death occurs and take care of the services that the family had requested.
