Why do we have
funerals? According to Dr. Alan Wolfelt, Ph.D. of the Center for Loss and
Life Transition, "For thousands of years, funerals have been a means of
expressing our beliefs, thoughts and feelings about the death of someone we
love. The funeral ceremony:
- allows us to say good-bye
- provides a social support system for us and other friends and family
members
- allows us to search for the meaning of life and death
- offers continuity and hope for the living.
Meaningful funeral ceremonies are rites of passage. They help us move
from life before the death to life after the death. The funeral provides a
safe place to affirm the worth of our relationship with the person who died
and express our feelings of loss."
Choosing the Service You Want
We know that each family has its own needs, traditions, and customs. These
are important in planning a remembrance of what was important in an
individual's life.
Our caring staff listens with great sensitivity, paying attention to the
smallest details that can make a service meaningful in a special, personal
way. Consideration for every detail is a hallmark of a Grimes Funeral
Chapels service.
Our funeral directors treat each family as a personal friend and help guide
them in planning the service they want and need for their loved one.
Grimes Funeral Chapels has firmly established itself as "The Leader in
Professional Funeral Service" because of our funeral directors and a single
word-commitment.
The choices you have, which are as personal as you wish to make them, can be
made with confidence and without undue stress. Our professional staff
approaches your personal wishes for a funeral service with awareness and
understanding.
Sound decisions are based on having enough good information with which to
work. It is our sincere hope that the information our directors provide will
satisfy certain questions, stimulate you to ask others, and enable you to
make wise choices regarding funeral services.
Funeral & Memorial Options
Each family we serve has its own unique needs. That's why we offer a wide
range of services, and why we listen to your desires when arranging a
funeral. We are a proven, high-quality funeral service provider. Our funeral
professionals are trained in planning funerals that are meaningful and meet
your family's needs and to provide comfort and support.
After Care Services
Our interest and care for the families we serve does not end with the
funeral service. We recognize the significant changes and feelings of loss
that families experience after the death of a loved one. Therefore, we
provide monthly contact with our families through newsletters and personal
contacts. We provide "Miracles & Memories," a
Christmas program, for families to recognize their special needs and provide
comfort and support.
Satisfaction Guaranteed
It is your family, your feelings, and your money. Grimes Funeral Chapels
believes a family deserves real quality and value in a funeral service.
