Most people don't realize how much you can personalize a casket. Here are two simple ways to make it meaningful, life symbols and display medallions. It's the little details that help tell someone's story.

Sometimes, as a funeral director, being ready to assist means handling the unexpected - including a burst water pipe in the embalming room after sub-zero temperatures.

Not how I planned to start the week, but I'll have this repaired today. The main floor remains unaffected, and there is no impact on our operations.

Has anyone else experienced frozen pipes or other cold-weather surprises?

Stay warm out there!

What does “options” really mean in funeral service?

Every family’s needs, values, and circumstances are different. That’s why there’s no single “right” way to honor a life.

Some families choose something simple. Others want time, tradition, and gathering. Many fall somewhere in between. All of those choices are valid.

Our job is to explain what’s available and help you choose what feels right for your family, without pressure.

When a death occurs, families are often surprised by how many choices are presented in a short period of time. It’s okay to pause, ask questions, and take a moment to breathe.

Our role is to guide you through the process at a pace that feels manageable, explaining options clearly and helping you make decisions when you’re ready.

We’re here to walk with you, one step at a time.

✨ Two Years of Serving Norvelt ✨

Today marks two years since our family purchased the funeral home, and I’m incredibly grateful for the trust this community continues to place in us. It has been an honor to care for families during some of their most difficult moments, and I’m proud of the growth we’ve experienced together.

Every day, we strive to provide meaningful, compassionate service.. service that reflects the values this community holds close. Thank you to every family who has allowed us the privilege of walking alongside you.

Here’s to continuing that commitment for many years to come. 🕊️
