Funeral services are an important part of saying goodbye to a loved one who has passed away. It is a time to honor their life and provide closure for family and friends. When it comes to planning a funeral, there are different types of services to choose from, each with its own unique characteristics.
At Desert Lawn Funeral Home and Memorial Park, we understand the importance of choosing the right type of funeral service. As a leading funeral home in the community, we offer a range of options to suit every family’s needs and preferences.
- Traditional Funeral Service The traditional funeral service is a time-honored tradition that includes a visitation, funeral ceremony, and burial or cremation. It typically takes place over a period of two to three days and includes religious or cultural elements as desired. The funeral home staff will help you plan every detail, from the casket or urn to the music and readings.
- Graveside Service A graveside service takes place at the burial site and is typically a more intimate gathering than a traditional funeral service. It may include a brief ceremony or tribute before the burial, and family and friends may choose to place flowers or mementos on the casket or grave.
- Memorial Service A memorial service is held after the burial or cremation has taken place and may be more flexible in terms of timing and location. It provides an opportunity for family and friends to come together to remember and celebrate the life of the loved one and may include photos, music, and personal tributes.
- Celebration of Life Service A celebration of life service is similar to a memorial service but with a focus on celebrating the person’s life rather than mourning their passing. It may include a variety of activities, such as sharing stories, displaying personal items or hobbies, and serving food and drinks.
