The Missing Man or Fallen Comrade Table may be seen at specific events to honor missing, fallen, or imprisoned service members. Each component of the table is chosen with intention and purpose. While the components of the table and their meaning may vary slightly, many sources generally agree on the following:
- The tablecloth is white symbolizing the purity of motives when answering the call to duty.
- The single red rose reminds us of those who are missing or lost as well as their loved ones.
- A yellow ribbon represents continued hope for those who are missing; a red ribbon represents a country who inspired them.
- The slice of lemon on a bread plate represents the bitter fate of those who have died or those who are missing.
- A pinch of salt on the bread plate symbolizes the tears of those waiting or grieving.
- The inverted glass represents that the service member cannot partake.
- A lighted candle symbolizes either hope for their return or remembering a fallen comrade.
- The empty chair represents their absence.

"When we saw tiny Earth... what struck me wasn't just Earth, it was all the blackness around it. Earth was just this lifeboat hanging in the universe. Planet Earth, you are a crew." — Christina Koch (astronaut)

Say their name.
One of the most common things we hear from grieving families is this: ‘Please don’t be afraid to say their name.’ It may bring tears — but it also brings their loved one back into the room, if only for a moment.
Their worst fear is that their loved one will be forgotten. Don't be afraid to say their name.

It is an Honor to Serve You

Five generations of our family have served the Minerva and surrounding communities for over 150 years.

Like many businesses today, not all funeral homes are still family owned. Local ownership does make a difference. Family owned, we are your neighbors and friends. We have a proud tradition of serving our community with a caring and compassionate service. We take great pride in the level of personalized attention we are able to offer all of our families. We remain committed to providing you with the finest professional service possible to you and your family through every step towards the funeral arrangements which will pay tribute to the special memory of your loved one.

Going above and beyond your expectations in service is what we do best. We welcome your questions about funeral planning. You can call us anytime to learn more about the advantages of making your funeral arrangements in advance with a family owned funeral business. We welcome you to visit our funeral home in person at your convenience. We look forward to providing the best professional services possible to you and your family for years to come.
