Academy Funeral Services is dedicated to giving your loved one a special ceremony so you can say good-bye with dignity and appreciation.
Initial Arrangement
Our initial arrangement is made either in the privacy of your home or our office. We generally make arrangements to transfer the deceased into our care and discuss the Funeral Arrangements. Both of these things usually happen within the first 24 hours. During this meeting one of our caring Funeral consultants will assist you decide on all of the many practical and celebratory aspects of the Funeral. A number of legal forms need to be completed. Examples of some of the decisions that need to be made include:
- When and where will the Funeral be held?
- Will vehicles be required?
- Will there be a viewing?
- Will the death and Funeral be advertised in the newspaper?
- Will music be incorporated into the service?
- Will there be an Order of Service or Life Review presentation? ( This is where Michelle's Heavenly Creations will assist you)
After the Arrangement
After the initial arrangements have been made we follow through on the various decisions that have been made. The many hours of planning we carry out is vital to ensuring the Funeral is in accordance with your wishes. A number of follow up phone calls are usually made during this period, to confirm or clarify outstanding issues and details.
