COMMITMENT; EXCELLENCE In Service SINCE 1881 ! Efficiency; Attention to Detail & ECONOMICAL best describe US !
We specialize in Traditional Funerals, Cremations, Memorials & Video Services via our 'Video Tributes' & funeral recording. The next-of-kin gets a FREE 'Video Tribute' DVD as well as a FREE DVD of the funeral ! A major difference is that WE DO NOT CHARGE for 'Video Tributes' -or- Video Recordings of Funerals !
WE excel in providing Personal Attention via our Professional Staff. Funerals nowadays are not inexpensive. OUR staffing level allows us to provide funerals at lesser prices in comparison to most other firms. Example: Our Standard Adult Service Fee is still LESS than $3000.00, with a Local Removal Charge of ONLY $75.00 ! We welcome and invite TRUE cost comparisons ! If your family has had a funeral elsewhere, compare & you'll realize what a savings this is !
YOUR PreArrangement Funds are SAFE with US due to our conservative fiscal management. Thousands of Missourians LOST MILLIONS of $$$ (including many here in Farmington) with the bankruptcy of St. Louis-based National PreArranged Services (NPS). WE fund our PreArrangements with other, safer companies. We have had NO affiliation with NPS for several decades, mainly due to their aggressive sales methods, often using non-funeral licensed, commission-driven sales people. Less than 1% of our trust funds were held with NPS. NPS's demise barely affects us. We are a licensed insurance agency & we do our own PreArrangement Sales. We do NOT allow salesman, UNTRAINED, in the funeral industry to solicit & sell funeral plans. They're in it for the commisions & usually know little about our profession. This was NPS's strategy. Our families deserve better than this !
Have insurance to pay funeral expenses ? Upon verification, we take assignments & proceed with funeral services. This is an important difference in that we do NOT make YOU pay in advance of ins. funds.
Efficiency and Attention-to-Detail are our hallmarks. 90% of our families receive death certificiates on or by funeral time & have for several decades. Our families get a great headstart to start on the many legal matters that arise upon a death. Again, we welcome comparison !
