At Calhoun Funeral Home & Cremation Service, we’ve talked to many people who have said this: “When I witnessed my loved one’s burial, I couldn’t help but think of where I would like to be laid to rest. How do I go about making that decision?”

We thought it would be helpful to offer guidance since we know how significant this is for you and generations of your loved ones. We’ve compiled information to get you started.

Choosing your final resting place is deeply personal.

This question is important: Have you thought about whether you would prefer a funeral or cremation? How about in-ground burial with a traditional headstone, a lawn-level marker, or perhaps a bench, a plaque, or an art piece?

Many families want to visit their loved ones after they die, which can impact the location and specifics of a final resting place. If you can think of it, we can help you do it, whether you prefer above-ground or in-ground, cremation or a casket, or even both in one space.

There are many options.

We regularly work with all of the local cemeteries, and whether you’ve chosen traditional burial or cremation, our professional and caring staff will do everything we can do to help you select the perfect final resting place.

 

You don’t want your family to have to guess what you would have wanted.

Too often, we meet with families who have lost someone important to them and want to make sure they make the right decisions on their loved one’s behalf. But when it comes to selecting the final resting place, are not sure where their loved one would have liked to be buried. They must decide among themselves, and as you can imagine, this doesn’t always go smoothly.

This is why it’s extremely important to make this decision for yourself. After all, you want to be in control rather than leaving your family to decide on your behalf.

You might be wondering where to start when it comes to exploring all we have to offer. You’re not alone – and that’s why we are here to help you every step of the way.

You want your choice of a final resting place to bring you peace of mind. Count on us to help you carry out your wishes.
