We are proud to announce the operation of our brand-new crematory

We are the only Death Care Provider in Indiana County and surrounding areas who owns and operates our own onsite Pet Crematory and our own Human Crematory and our own Monument Company.


By law in Pennsylvania, pets and humans MUST be housed and cremated separately. Both our Pet Crematory and Human Crematory are run and operated by our own in-house trained staff. From the very first call, we are in complete control of everything that happens with your loved one throughout their duration in our care.


For this reason, your loved one never leaves our care.

No matter what you choose…

… cremation is simply a form of final disposition. It’s the other things you do that determine whether a final tribute is meaningful, healing, personalized, and exactly what your family needs to grieve.

Why is it important to have a meaningful, healing, and personalized funeral service?

Meaningful - When something has meaning, it has deeper purpose, deeper poignancy. By intentionally creating a meaningful service, you allow mourners - family, friends, neighbors - to say goodbye in a way that will help them heal and bring peace and comfort for years to come. 


Healing - After the death of someone loved, you will experience feelings of grief. These emotions look different from person to person (sadness, anger, guilt, regret, shock, disbelief), but a meaningful service can help bring healing and comfort to a hurting heart.


Personalized - Above all, it’s essential to personalize a funeral service. Without personalization, you cannot create meaning or facilitate healing. Without personalization, you get a cookie-cutter experience instead of a one-of-a-kind final tribute.

Together, all three - meaningful, healing, and personalized - come together to create a truly unique funeral experience that will heal hurts, touch hearts, and help you say goodbye to a truly unique and irreplaceable person.
