It is believed to be a time to come together and remember loved ones, helping them peacefully transcend to heaven. Often, those celebrating gather for a Mass and light candles to honor the departed. It is a way for the community to come together in mourning and remembrance of lives lost.

In 1948, George and Jack Toale purchased our town’s first funeral home, just six years after Sarasota and Manatee counties completed the airport in 1942. The space was leased to the Army Air Forces during World War II, and in 1944, National Airlines began operating services out of our airport. Guests continued to use the wooden terminal pictured for another ten years until a new terminal was built, and the airport continued to expand.

White doves are often seen as symbols of peace, freedom, and letting go. When released at a funeral or celebration of life, they offer a visual way for loved ones to say a final goodbye to the departed.

While the meaning of a dove release varies across religions and cultures, it remains an environmentally friendly grand gesture for those who have passed.

We’re Here For You

Toale Brothers Funeral Home is proud to have served Sarasota and Bradenton and its citizens for three generations as a local family owned and operated business. From 1912 till now, we have been here to guide you through the most difficult moments in your life. Ever since we opened our gates we have approached life (and death) differently. While some just see the end of a loved one’s life as a time for grief and mourning, we prefer to think of it as a time for reflection, appreciation and even celebration. Our well-established Pre-Need program has allowed for consumers to plan ahead for a loved one or themselves and provides a great sense of comfort to those families wishing to pre-plan final arrangements. The entire Toale family is thankful to be serving your family in the community we know and love.
