With a history in funeral service extending back to 1887, we take great pride in the exceptional legacies with which we've been entrusted and are committed to upholding the treasured traditions of our communities. It is equally important to us to ensure that every family we serve has the opportunity to consider all the current options and technology available to help them create a memorial experience that meets their unique needs. Our website is an important part of that effort.
Here you will find details of our current services and have the opportunity to send condolences to a family or pledge a memorial donation. You can also learn more about our facilities, services, preplanning options and other information. We've even provided maps and directions if you're trying to find us.
We have designed our site to be both informative and convenient for you. We hope you find it helpful and welcome your comments if you see ways in which we can improve it.
Thank you for visiting.
David Pizzey
