Services
Our staff is highly trained and experienced in a wide range of the various customs, cultures and religious beliefs that are found in the world today. Our facilities are tastefully decorated in spacious surroundings where we offer the following services:
The Traditional Funeral
Our traditional service will include all the elements necessary to assist a family with the difficult task of saying goodbye. The visitation will offer time to gather, share and remember. The service itself shall be customized in such a way that life is celebrated in a most meaningful manner. The procession and interment are carried out with dignity and respect. We will gently guide you through this process while promising a timely transfer of the remains from place of death to the funeral home, along with the full services of our caring staff in preparing documents, correspondence, general clerical duties, invoices, newspaper notices, telephone coverage, and preparing of the grounds, building and vehicles.

Cremation
The decision for cremation will be carried out with compassion and respect. A family will have the options of traditional visitation and funeral service followed by cremation and interment, or private viewing only followed by cremation. A Memorial Service is an option that can be held at any time. Whatever the decision, we are dedicated to providing support and comfort to family and friends dealing with the loss of a loved one. Our committed office staff are readily available to assist you through the days, weeks, or months until the very last service is completed.
Pre-Planning
Planning for the future is a natural and important part of our everyday life. As our families mature, pre-planning one's funeral becomes part of this process. While it may seem difficult, pre-planning allows for open discussion and ensures that everyone's wishes are respected. There is no charge for pre-planning as special requests and services will simply be recorded and saved. For those who wish to pre-finance our services, we can assist you by placing your funds into an irrevocable funeral trust, which will guarantee payment for services tomorrow, but at today’s prices. Pre-planning is a thoughtful way to relieve your family of some of the anxiety that occurs during times of emotional distress. Our dedicated staff is available to assist you and your family in answering any questions and concerns regarding funeral pre-planning. Please consult us at your convenience.
Benefits For Veterans
There do exist special benefits for military veterans honorably discharged from their duties. As an added salute to those who have served (along with their spouses), our federal government will finance several of the services and products that we offer. Please consult our knowledgeable staff for complete information about these special benefits.
At The Paul L. Gravenor Home For Funerals, we encourage families to customize any or all of the above services so that the passing of their loved one can be memorialized in a way that is fully meaningful. We are all unique and special therefore our services should be also.
