What services do Sechrest-Davis Funerals & Cremations offer?
Sechrest-Davis offers a comprehensive range of services to accommodate diverse needs and preferences. These include traditional funeral services with viewings and religious ceremonies, memorial services celebrating a life well-lived, cremation services with various options for memorialization, grief counseling resources, and pre-planning options for those wishing to arrange future arrangements. We also offer assistance with all the necessary legal and logistical details, easing the burden on grieving families.
What is the difference between a funeral and a memorial service?
A funeral service typically involves the viewing or visitation of the deceased, often followed by a religious or non-religious ceremony. The body is usually present at the funeral. A memorial service, on the other hand, is a celebration of life that occurs after the burial or cremation. The body is not present at the memorial service. The choice between a funeral and a memorial service depends largely on personal preference and religious or cultural beliefs.
What are the different cremation options available?
Cremation offers a variety of options for memorialization. These can include urns for ashes, scattering of ashes in a meaningful location, or the creation of memorial jewelry containing a small amount of ashes. We can help you choose the option that best reflects your loved one's personality and your family's wishes. Some families opt for a memorial service following the cremation, while others choose a private scattering of ashes. We’ll guide you through these options, ensuring you choose what feels right for your family.
How can I pre-plan my own funeral arrangements?
Pre-planning your funeral arrangements offers peace of mind and allows you to ensure your wishes are honored. At Sechrest-Davis, we offer comprehensive pre-planning services, allowing you to personalize every aspect of your service in advance.
