We have a home-based funeral facilitation service which you can use even if you don\u2019t engage us as your funeral director. This means you are the funeral director and we assist with walking you through the process. Home-based care makes it possible for your loved one to lie in a state of grace either in their own home or somewhere with a personal connection that will be comforting to them and to you, for a period of up to five days.<\/p>\n
