Green Burials
Green burial is a way of caring for the deceased with minimal environmental impact and the restoration and preservation of habitat. For those who have a special concern for nature and the environment, this option is respectful and dignified.
Gramer Funeral Home takes pride in offering green burial options sanctioned by the Green Burial Council. Learn more about this subject and what it means to be a member of the Green Burial Council.
Video Tributes
A special way to honor the memory of your loved one is with a video tribute. A video tribute combines photographs with music, scenery, and words to honor the life that was lived. This is shown as part of the service to make the event more personable and memorable. After the service, we provide you with your own copy on DVD for a keepsake remembrance you will always cherish.
Personalization
Many people who attend a funeral may not know the deceased very well, if at all. A funeral is a time to help friends, colleagues, and family members to celebrate what was truly distinctive and unique about this special life. We offer many ways to add that personal touch to your services, including:
- Video tributes
- Memory tables
- Photo boards
- Candlelight ceremonies
- Live music
- Displays of cherished possessions or collections
Our professional team helps you plan and create a funeral service that truly reflects the life of your loved one.
