Marvil Funeral Home

One of the reasons for investing in a preneed funeral plan is that it relieves you or your loved ones of a tremendous burden in the event of a death. It is very difficult to maintain a clear head when someone passes; pre-arrangement means everything is already in place.

If the deceased wished to donate their organs, a funeral home can often work with you to provide a viewing or service and assist in the transport of the body.

As a family member of the deceased, you are within your rights to specify who can attend the visitation or viewing, funeral service, and burial. If you would prefer one or more of these be restricted to family only, let your funeral director know and he or she will help you make this known.

A traditional funeral service usually consists of three separate rites: the visitation, the service, and the committal. Each of these is a separate and distinct funeral rite, and allows you to grieve, celebrate the life of the deceased, and say goodbye.

Funeral homes have the facilities to be able to handle virtually any type of service. If music is needed, or a setup for a choir or group of musicians, the funeral home has both the room and the equipment to accommodate virtually any request.

Making Jewish funeral arrangements are similar to other funeral arrangements in the fact that all the same information is necessary. You'll need to meet with a rabbi and funeral director to determine the type of service you'd like for your loved one.
