Funeral Services

By J. E. Davidson Our American culture prizes youth and beauty while seldom accepting death as a natural part of life. Media portray death as violent, disturbing, and painful instead of peaceful and something that may be embraced. We tend to withdraw and avoid coping with the death of a loved one. A new trend is emerging in home funerals, which makes death personal experience, gives us a chance to celebrate the life of our loved one, and challenges our old ways of thinking about after-death care.
