Memorial Services

A gathering that heals

A memorial service is a dignified gathering of family, friends and colleagues to mark the life and passing of a loved one. Whether in our chapel, at a place of worship or outdoors, we shape every reading, song and silence around the person you knew.

Your dedicated director stays by your side from the first meeting to the final guest — coordinating clergy, musicians, printed orders of service and the reception that follows.

  • Choose the setting, readings, music and flowers
  • We coordinate every vendor and rehearse the day with you
