Services Overview

Services We Provide

Baskerville Funeral Home LLC offers distinctive, personal, and affordable services designed to help you honor your loved one in a way that is unique to them and meaningful to you. 

Traditional Funeral Services

Traditional funeral services are established by one's cultural or religious customs. These services include a time for families and friends to gather for a visitation or viewing. Services include a funeral at the funeral home or at a church, with the casketed remains present. A procession to a cemetery, or place of final disposition, follows the funeral service. Traditional funeral services are usually public but can be private.

Graveside Services

Graveside services are held at the site of burial. These services consist of scripture readings, a eulogy, poetry, and music, and may be accompanied by a visitation or viewing the evening before. 

Memorial Services

Memorial services are conducted when the deceased is not present. These services may take place anywhere the family desires. This is an opportunity to remember your loved one through fellowship with friends and family.

Visitation Prior to Funeral Service

Visitation is often called a viewing or a wake. Guests come to pay their respects to the deceased by viewing the deceased's casket and spending time with the grieving family. A visitation can occur the day before the service or one hour before the funeral service.

Private Family Viewings

Private family viewing occurs prior to the public viewing. This ensures the family's satisfaction with the public viewing. 

Embalming

Embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary; however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a funeral with viewing. If you do not want embalming, you usually have the right to choose an arrangement that does not require you to pay for it, such as direct cremation or immediate burial.

Cremation

Cremation has become a popular option for many people because it can be more flexible as to where and when you hold a service. You can have a traditional funeral service before a cremation or a memorial service at any time with or without the urn present. You can keep the urn, scatter the ashes or have the urn buried in a grave or columbarium where we can hold a service. Whether you choose burial or cremation, we’re here to offer you a meaningful ceremony.
