Frequently Asked Questions...

Many people have questions that they would like to ask of a funeral director. Let's face it, death is not exactly a subject that many of us prefer to discuss. 

Death and dying have always been taboo subjects, and many go through life with the wrong information. Television and the movies all give us the wrong impression of how death should be dealt with. A death of a loved one takes a great emotional toll on everyone. In fact a death of a spouse has more impact than losing a job, or losing your personal belongings to a fire. Over the past 15 years more and more research has been done on death and dying than in the past century. 

We now know that there are particular stages that every one goes through to cope with their grief.

The main reason for us establishing this Internet site, was to educate people in the areas of death and dying.  No question is too "stupid" to ask, so please ask away. This is our sole purpose on this site. If you use our e-mail to ask, all confidentiality will be respected
