Every life tells a story. Some stories are rooted deep in the land, carried forward through generations, and lived with quiet pride.
Harold was a third-generation farmer, a veteran, a husband, a father, and a man whose heart was always happiest on the farm. His beloved red equipment was more than machinery — it was part of who he was. So when his family asked that his red farm trailer be present for both his visitation and his funeral Mass, it felt like the most natural way to honor a life spent faithfully tending the land and his family.
At the cemetery, Harold’s final resting place reflected that same devotion. His burial vault was thoughtfully personalized and painted red to match the equipment he loved, adorned with photos of his family, his farm, and of Harold doing what he loved most — working the fields. Each detail told a piece of his story.
Because honoring a life means caring for the people left behind, we also made sure the graveside reflected warmth, dignity, and comfort — from patriotic chair covers and blankets for the family, to a space heater tucked inside the tent on a winter day. Small details, perhaps, but ones that matter deeply in moments like these.
Harold spent his final day surrounded by family, celebrating Christmas together — a gift beyond measure. He now rests alongside his daughter, Judy, reunited once again.
It is a privilege to walk with families as they honor a life so well lived. Thank you for trusting us to help tell Harold’s story — with heart, intention, and care.
Because every detail matters.
