OUR PACKAGES

Our Cremation Packages

Over the years, we’ve learned something very valuable, yet largely unrecognized by the general public: a cremation funeral, memorial service, or celebration of life offers family and friends the opportunity to say goodbye to a loved one, and sets the stage for the healing process which follows.


It doesn’t have to be complicated. The most important part is in the “coming together” with others to share memories, and receive comfort from one another. It can be a very simple ceremony or one where the personality and lifetime achievements of your loved one are showcased. We give you a simpler, affordable yet dignified option, so that you can begin the healing process with your family, friends and celebrate your loved one's life, their story.


Here, you will find information on our all inclusive services we can provide your family after losing a loved one. If you would prefer to speak to someone directly, please call us at (309) 798-9798. We will be pleased to share commemoration ideas.
