When most people think of San Pablo funeral home services, they think of the traditional services of preparing a body for burial, hosting services, and working with the cemetery to ensure a proper burial. These are all important elements of creating a respectful funeral for clients, but did you know there are many other services offered by modern funeral homes that are just as important to the process of saying goodbye to your loved ones?
Here are just a few of these lesser-known services and how they can help your family through this difficult time:
Documentation and Legal Services
No one wants to spend the time after a loved one passes worrying about documentation and legal matters. Thankfully, funeral homes are experienced in assisting families with everything from securing death certificates and permits for special burials to writing obituaries and running them on local websites or in papers.
Support Services
The death of a loved one is a sad and stressful time, and the added pressure of planning and hosting funerals and other gatherings can exacerbate this stress. Many funeral homes offer onsite grief counseling, support, or work with third-party agencies within their local communities to provide these.
Logistics and additional services
Transportation of the body to the final resting place and the movement of floral arrangements and other items are services that are also offered by most funeral homes. This helps families ensure a smooth transition from the public-facing gatherings to the burial and beyond, leaving them fewer things to worry about.
There are still more San Pablo funeral home services you might not have heard of, although some of these vary depending on the funeral home’s individual policies. Some of these include:
• Catering for gatherings at the funeral home and elsewhere.
• Working with family to create customized tributes.
• Providing keepsakes and memorial items, and much more.
