General Services

A funeral represents an opportunity to honor and pay tribute to a life that has been lived. It is also a way of demonstrating the impact that the life lived has had on family and friends. At Allen & Allen we take our commitment to you very seriously. It is our intention to help you to commemorate a life lived by helping you plan a funeral that speaks about life.

Personalization has become a key word for all of our services. We offer many ways to personalize. Memorial tables, picture boards, eulogies, different music, memorial folders, casket cap panels, personalized caskets, personalized urns and register books. Go to personalization for more information.

While offering many new concepts in funeral service, we have also retained the more traditional service. These faith-based services are still the choice of many of the families we serve. But even with the traditional service, the opportunity to personalize or to remember one is still there. Our trained staff can help you to plan a service that will have meaning for everyone concerned. For more information on traditional services, please see our funeral service options page.

Though many think that cremation means cremation with no service, viewing or tribute of any kind, this is not the case. Though your desire may be for a cremation without viewing or without a service of any kind, it is certainly not the only options available to cremation families. The choice is yours as how you want to pay tribute and honor. Our trained staff can help you to decide what options are best for you. For more information on cremations, please see our cremation options page.

We also offer Thomas County's only local crematory. This means that we will handle cremations ourselves, without the use of a crematory in another city. By doing this, we can be sure that a family's wishes are fully carried out.

Sunset Memorial Gardens is our locally owned perpetual care cemetery. The cemetery is highlighted by 5 burial gardens. These gardens also allow areas for interment of cremains. We also have niches for above ground interment of cremated remains.

A complete line of monuments and ground level markers help to make our offerings complete. Any shape, style, color or size stone is available. Computerized drawings allow you to see the stone before it is built and carved.

By offering a full service funeral home, crematory, cemetery, and monument company, we feel that we can meet every need. Add to that our ability to personalize our offerings and tailor them to a family's wishes and desires. Here at Allen & Allen Funeral Home, commitment and compassion are not just words, but a way of conducting ourselves.
