Making Arrangements with us

Funeral Arrangements Bethlehem PA

When you’re ready, we will sit down together either here at the funeral home or in the comfort of your own home to begin making the necessary arrangements. Our goal is to honor your loved one in a way that is meaningful to you and reflects their life and wishes.

 

We’ll start by discussing the type of service you would like: whether that’s a traditional funeral, full-service cremation, a memorial service, celebration of life, or something more private. We’ll also walk you through options such as burial or cremation, viewing and visitation preferences, and the location and timing of the service.

Together, we’ll review important details such as selecting a casket or urn, floral arrangements, music selections, and any readings or personal touches you’d like included. If your loved one had any pre-planned wishes, we’ll be sure to honor those as well.

 

We’ll also take care of necessary documentation, including permits, death certificates, and coordination with the cemetery. And please note we have an on-site crematory to ensure peace of mind; that your loved one never leaves our care. If there are obituary notices to prepare, we can assist with writing and placing them in the publications of your choice.
