Being in the Funeral Business, there is no day that is the same. Everyday is different, and every family we help is different. Thats what keeps this industry interesting and fresh. Everyone has a story, and no one's stories are the same. With that said, the services we provide families typically have the "traditional" service of a viewing/visitation with an open casket, the actual funeral service where the pastor or priest presents the message, and followed by a graveside service or cremation. However, there are some families who honor their loved ones in entirely different ways. This man's final wish was to be behind the wheel of his taxi, so his family made sure that that was exactly what was arranged. Check out the video below.

Send us an email and let us know how you want your "not-so-traditional" funeral service to be like. Depending on how many emails we get, I might put a blog up in the future that displays some of your ideas. They will be anonymous of course, but I thought that might be interesting for you guys to read. Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day!
