Burial Vaults

Burial vaults are protective containers designed to house caskets, providing added security and structural support. Many cemeteries require burial vaults to protect the casket and ensure proper grounds maintenance, making them a common choice for families. Today, a growing number of families opt for burial vaults as a way to safeguard their loved one’s remains while honoring their memory.

Memorial Markers

Memorial markers are enduring tributes that serve as physical reminders of a life celebrated and remembered. They provide a designated location where friends and family can visit to pay their respects and reflect on cherished memories for years to come. By marking the final resting place, these markers help preserve the legacy of loved ones and offer a sense of connection to those who have passed.

Urns

Urns are containers designed to hold the ashes of loved ones who have been cremated, providing a meaningful way to preserve their memory. To accommodate the growing number of families choosing cremation, our urn collection features biodegradable options for scattering, alongside traditional urns made from materials such as marble, wood, bronze, and ceramic. Styles vary widely, ranging from understated and classic to ornate and decorative, allowing families to select an urn that reflects their loved one’s personality and wishes.

Urn Vaults

Urn vaults are protective containers designed to house urns when buried, ensuring the safety of the urn and the integrity of the surrounding earth. Similar to burial vaults, many cemeteries require the use of an urn vault to maintain proper grounds maintenance and protect the remains within. By opting for an urn vault, families can provide additional security for their loved one’s ashes while honoring their memory in a dignified manner.

Flower Selection

Preselecting flowers for a memorial service is a meaningful way to enhance the atmosphere and honor your loved one. We work with local florists to provide a beautiful selection of flowers suitable for funerals, visitations, memorials, or graveside services, including both self-standing arrangements and those designed specifically for a casket or urn. Our team is here to help you choose the perfect floral expressions that reflect your loved one’s personality and the sentiments you wish to convey.
