BURIAL

There are different services that you can choose for a loved one’s burial, depending upon your individual needs and preferences:

Immediate burial means that your loved one will be buried without a public service or gathering.
Visitation, also called a viewing or wake, allows family and friends to gather in a room with the departed loved one in an open or closed casket and say goodbye or offer their support and sympathy to the bereaved.
Graveside or committal services are held at the cemetery, and allow family and friends to be present as their loved one is transferred to his or her final disposition through ground burial.
