Today we recognize and honor two members of our team whose dedication has made a lasting impact on our funeral home and the families we serve.

Jim Graff, Owner and Funeral Director, has been serving families with compassion and integrity since 1992. His leadership and commitment continue to guide everything we do.

We also remember and honor Morgan, who joined our team in 2020. Morgan’s kindness, dedication, and caring presence left a meaningful impression on both coworkers and the families he served.

We are grateful for the service, heart, and legacy they each represent.

Happy New Year, it's 2026! 🎉

How do you like to welcome the New Year these days?

As we turn the page to a new year, what do you want to carry with you or leave behind?
This season invites us to reflect, release, and renew.

May the year ahead bring comfort where it’s needed, laughter to your days, and love that surrounds you always.

Do I need to pre-plan if I already have life insurance?

While you may have life insurance, the reimbursement a surviving family member receives isn’t always an option for funeral expenses. Even if you have a policy in place, your loved ones may not receive the reimbursement in time, or it may not cover the full amount, leaving them to pay out-of-pocket for final arrangements.

Start the conversation, message us today!

As we celebrate this special day, we’re reminded of how meaningful it is to be surrounded by love, friendship, and community. Whether you’re gathering with family, sharing stories of loved ones, or simply taking a quiet moment of reflection, may your day be filled with peace and warmth.

Tell us how you’re celebrating today. We’d love to hear from you.
