We are proud to offer Sepio Guard Away From Home Assurance, a service that ensures you or a loved one is taken care should you pass away far from home.

What is Sepio Guard? If death occurs 75 miles or more from your legal residence, Sepio Guard steps in to make sure you are brought back into our care. No age limits, no deductible, no dollar limits. Just peace of mind with this protection for a one-time fee.

We love this Navajo prayer, “When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.”

How do you make the most of each day?

Grief can be unpredictable, it’s how we learn to live with grief, to live our new normal.

Funeral services don't have to be somber. In fact, seeing the significance of a life lived reminds us all how beautiful and impactful a single life can be. A funeral service helps survivors find meaning and purpose in living, even after the loss of a loved one.

"You will lose someone you can't live without, and your heart will be badly broken, and the bad news is that you never completely get over the loss of your beloved. But this is also the good news. They live forever in your broken heart that doesn't seal back up. And you come through. It's like having a broken leg that never heals perfectly, that still hurts when the weather gets cold, but you learn to dance with the limp." - Anne Lamott

Most airlines allow cremated remains on board as carry-on or checked baggage, but the container holding the remains must pass through the x-ray machine or it will not be allowed through security. Cremated remains can also be air-shipped as cargo but only by "known shippers." In addition, to transport remains on an airplane you must provide a death or cremation certificate for the cremated remains in order to carry them on board.
