Cremation ServicesAt The Dietrich-Mothershead Funeral Home, we provided memorial service options for loved ones who choose cremation over a traditional burial. All of our cremation services include assistance with the permanent placement of the urn at a cemetery or columbarium. In addition to ceremonial remembrance which includes a service, we offer simple cremation which does not include memorial services.
Whatever your family’s needs and wishes, we’ll help you arrange a service as special as your loved one. We regularly work with a variety of community organizations and faith groups to accurately reflect your loved one’s personality and interests. Whether you wish to hold a traditional funeral, private viewing, celebration of life ceremony, or graveside service, we’ll ensure every detail is covered.
We offer flexible, custom options for families who choose our cremation services. From memorial services to simple cremations, we’re dedicated to the highest quality care. Further personalize your loved one’s remembrance with an urn from our vast selection. You can rest assured that our trained experts will serve you and your family with empathy and integrity at all times.
Our funeral director provides organized and detailed services when coordinating all requirements and offers consolation to grieving families. They will work with you to arrange the entire funeral from beginning to end, or if your loved one left instructions, the funeral director will respect their wishes. All documents, transportation, scheduling, and other details are covered, so that you and your family can focus on remembering your loved one.
Two common permanent placement options are caskets and urns. Our newly remodeled casket selection room contains an array of 30 style choices in three collections that can be personalized to reflect your loved one’s involvement in groups, hobbies, faith communities, and more. The range of options we have available ensures you’ll find the casket or urn that suits your loved one best.
