Shellhouse Funeral Homes

Not all funeral homes are alike. Finding one that honors your wishes is essential to a funeral that comforts your loved ones when you pass.

Everyone leaves behind a legacy. As we venture towards our final resting places, we must make important decisions which help to shape that legacy. This concluding chapter of our lives is something to plan for, and better not left to the kids. Many things in life happen beyond our control, but in planning your legacy and your burial plan, you are the one making the choices.

A funeral pays tribute to the deceased and tells the story of who that person was. Whether you’re thinking about arrangements well in advance for someone who is living or if you’re already suffering the loss of a loved one planning a meaningful funeral you must only consider the story of the person who has passed and celebrate it. Since planning these arrangements is new for most people, seeking guidance is a good place to start. However, the meaning of the service will derive from the loving memories and character traits you wish to highlight as part of the deceased’s legacy.

Let’s face it – most people would rather spend their time talking about the good things in life. Every so often, however, it’s crucial to the wellbeing of our loved ones to talk about those easy to avoid, difficult topics.
