Traditional Services and Celebrations of Life
If money wasn't an object, what would your loved one have wanted for their funeral service or life celebration?
When it comes to planning an end-of-life service, we're not in it for the money; We want to help you arrange a service your loved one would've wanted and one that best helps you mourn and cherish your memories.
At Minor Funeral and Cremation Center, we accommodate families of all faiths in planning a traditional service or a celebration of life.
A traditional service is a service with the deceased physically present. This often involves a visitation, funeral service at a church or funeral home and a graveside service. See a detailed description below or if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call us anytime at (802) 893-6323.
A celebration of life can be anything you want it to be—something completely non-traditional or something with traditional and unique elements combined. Your loved one's service doesn't have to be a somber occasion where everyone is seated, saying, "I'm sorry for your loss." We'll help you create a fitting service.
We believe strongly in helping families choose the right service options at a fair price.
Visitation
This time is set aside for family and friends to gather together to say goodbye, while being in the comfort of those closest to them. We can personalize the visitation to be as unique as your loved one with a tribute video, items or displays that were important to your loved one, or simply pictures displayed. We will work with your family to design the perfect gathering experience.
Funeral Service
The funeral service can be held in our chapel, a church, or any other venue the family chooses. We work with our families to design a service that honors their loved one with stories, music, or scripture. We also have life celebrants that lead services where clergy may not be chosen. Our celebrants are trained in creating experiences that help start the healing process.
Graveside Service
A graveside or committal service is typically held immediately following the funeral service but it can also be a small intimate gathering of those closest to you.
