An individual’s funeral or memorial service represents a unique opportunity to celebrate the life of a loved one; the memories you have, the values they projected, and the accomplishments they achieved. The service also serves an important part of the grieving process. There is no typical service. Each family has its own special needs, customs, and traditions. We are committed to helping you create a meaningful service which is the most appropriate for you. Our funeral directors and staff are dedicated to assist you in choosing the music, clothing, flowers, and any other essentials that are right for your needs. No matter what your situation or desire, we are here to help you - before, during and after the funeral service.
Each family we serve has their own unique needs. That’s why we offer a wide range of services, and why we listen to your desires when arranging a funeral. We strive for your utmost satisfaction and we feel that will be the case when you have the opportunity to choose exactly the type of services you prefer.
Itemized Goods and Services
All of our funeral goods and services are itemized in our General Price List.
In compliance with Federal Trade Commission regulations, all funeral homes must price their services in a similar format and
provide a copy of their General Price List to customers. This provides an opportunity to select exactly the type of funeral or
memorial ceremony they prefer and to be more informed of their prices. Kale Funeral Home also offers custom service packages
which can provide savings and convenience over itemized selection. Please consult our funeral directors and our General Price
List for further information and any questions that you may have.
