Schott Funeral Homes and Cremation Services

11/07/2025

The holidays are all about family — the laughter, the stories, the time together. ❤️ While you’re surrounded by loved ones, take a moment to think about how you can care for them even after you’re gone. Pre-planning your funeral helps give them comfort and clarity when they’ll need it most — and that’s something they will forever be grateful for. 🙏

To begin the pre-planning process, give one of our funeral directors a call!
