At
Kruse-Phillips Funeral Homes we strive to provide the families
we serve with meaningful funeral services designed to celebrate
a life well lived. A funeral service can take many forms and
should be planned according to the needs and wishes of the individual,
as well as his or her survivors.
This information is a broad outline of the types of services
we are able to assist families in arranging at Kruse-Phillips
Funeral Homes. It is by no means complete. Our goal is to assist
families in coordinating a meaningful and personal funeral service,
whatever their needs may be. |

Traditional
services typically include the preparation and dressing of the
deceased. A public or private visitation may be held at the
funeral home or church. The funeral service would follow at
the funeral home or church, followed by interment at a cemetery
or mausoleum. Within this basic framework, there are many options
for personalization. The type of clothing or jewelry a family
selects may have particular significance to them. Favorite musical
selections can be used during the service as well as background
music at the visitation. Special floral arrangements may be
used. Often, families will gather pictures and mementos to display
during the visitation and funeral service. Favorite passages
of scripture and personal memories can be discussed with your
minister for incorporation in the funeral service. There are
also many personalization options in memorial folders, the type
of casket and vault selected as well as custom panels and corners
available on some casket models. |
Traditional
Cremation
|
 |
| Traditional
cremation services are very similar to a traditional funeral
service with the exception of the final disposition. With a
traditional cremation service the body is present for the visitation
and funeral service with cremation following the funeral service.
Following cremation, the cremains may be interred in a cemetery
or columbarium, returned to the family, or scattered where the
law allows. |
 |
Immediate
cremation services are arranged for the cremation to take place
prior to any services. Family viewing can also be arranged prior
to cremation. Memorial visitations and or services can also be
arranged similar to those in the “traditional” services
mentioned above. As in the “Traditional Cremation Service”
, the cremains can be interred in a cemetery or columbarium, returned
to the family, or scattered where the law allows. |
