How to Send an Online Condolence
We understand that it is not always possible to attend to the funeral home and pay your respects to the deceased or their surviving families. Our on-line condolences feature allows you to let the family know you are with them in thought, and to have the opportunity to share those feelings and special thoughts about the deceased with the family.
We are proud to offer this service to the families we serve. You may choose
to send an Online Condolence in memories of a loved one, with our 'Send Condolences'
option.
Our Online Condolences Form makes placing a condolence very convenient to
family and friends of the deceased who are unable to express their thoughts
in person. Once you chose to place an Online Condolence, you will be required
to complete a series of 7 steps to send a condolence.
