THE TRENT-DOWELL
FUNERAL HOME is a full service funeral home. Funeral services and merchandise can be selected in advance or at the time of
need at one location. Traditional or non-traditional funeral rituals may be selected.
TRADITIONAL FUNERAL SERVICES would include, but not limited to,
removal of the deceased, services of the funeral
director and staff, embalming, viewing, conducting an evening visitation and funeral ceremony next day or same day visitation
and funeral.
NON-TRADITIONAL
FUNERAL SERVICES may include, but not limited to, removal of deceased, services of the funeral director
and staff, arranging for cremation and conducting a memorial funeral service at the funeral home or other location. Click
on our "cremation services" side link for more information about our cremation plans. Also, non-traditional funeral
services may include immediate burials or graveside services.
TRADITIONAL AND NON-TRADITIONAL SERVICES may be selected together. For example, the
traditional embalming, viewing, visitation and funeral ceremony can be conducted, but instead of earth burial or entombment,
cremation can be performed as an alternative. Our staff can explain these and other options that are available to you.
CREMATION SERVICE PLANS can be viewed by visiting our Cremation Services page for detailed
information.
CASH
ADVANCE ITEMS are contracted services from agencies other than the funeral home that are paid before services are
rendered on your behalf. Our staff can arrange for these services which include, but are not limited to, opening and
closing of the grave, performing of the cremation process, selecting and arranging of flowers and clergy honorariums.
THE
SERVICES we provide to conduct a funeral, any merchandise selected and cash advance items are listed individually
on our goods and services statement as required by law and as a convenience to the family.
ADDITIONAL ITEMS are the register book, acknowledgement cards,
special interest emblems, religious symbols, wood framed flag cases, a variety of urns and cremation keepsakes and several other items to choose from.
FOR THE VETERANS, we can arrange for
a military burial rite to be performed.
PRE-ARRANGED FUNERAL AND CREMATION SERVICES can be made in our office and vital statistics information can be registered
with us, in advance, by using the form provided found on the "pre-arranging" page of this website. Secured
funeral funding plans are available to choose from in order to help offset future increases in funeral costs.
OUR DIRECTORS will provide for the family
a General Price List, Casket Price List, Outer Burial Container Price List and Cremation Price List as required
by law and a director will explain each item. Charges will be made only for those items chosen by
the family. Our Directors will assist the family in the filing of insurance claims, government forms and obtaining veterans
benefits, including veterans grave markers and American Flags.
THE GOAL of our family at the Trent-Dowell Funeral Home is to help families plan
a funeral with services and merchandise at reasonable costs, while presenting a high standard of professionalism and
above all, to add a "personal touch" to the funeral for every family we serve during their time of need.
