Why Funeral Services Matter
Funeral services serve multiple purposes: they honor a life, provide a structured opportunity for grief and remembrance, and create communal support systems for those left behind. Whether a family chooses a formal, religious funeral, a quiet graveside service, or a modern memorial gathering, the rituals and logistics surrounding a funeral support emotional healing, legal and financial closures, and community connection. Professional funeral providers ensure these needs are met with dignity and with adherence to legal requirements. At Percy Garner & Son Mortuary, we treat every service as an opportunity to reflect the deceased’s life with authenticity and care.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between direct burial and a traditional burial?
Direct burial occurs without a public viewing or ceremony at the mortuary; the interment takes place at the cemetery and may include a brief graveside service. Traditional burial includes viewing/visitation, a funeral ceremony, and burial with fuller community participation.
Can we hold a memorial service after cremation?
Yes. Cremation offers flexible timing for memorials. Families often hold services weeks after cremation to allow time for travel and additional planning.
How do prepaid plans work?
Prepaid plans allow families to pay for services in advance at current rates and outline specific preferences. We document plans and provide copies to families to ensure they are accessible when needed.
Do you offer payment plans?
We discuss available options and work with families to find solutions based on their financial needs. We accept various payment methods and will review options during planning.
