Cremation is a Choice That Offers a Host of Other Choices
Glueckert Funeral Home Manager Matthew Bennett works hard and takes the extra effort with families to make sure they know that all of their choices for funeral arrangements offer a host of opportunities for families to take advantage of when they lay their loved one to rest. Matt’s personal belief through his experience is that many in the funeral industry have not given families all of the options available to them.
For instance, at Glueckert, families may take advantage of an Urn Carrying device (one he created) to allow for 4 pallbearers to serve and accept the honor of escorting your loved one into a place of worship and/or to the cemetery. Cremation is a “disposition” that can be somewhat temporary by nature. Families often follow the wishes of their loved ones in where the remains ultimately rest; a crypt, a niche at a cemetery, buried or scattered. Matt offers some very helpful advice and a written instrument the Glueckert Family uses to make it easier for families and ensure the deceased member’s final wishes for disposition is carried out according to their wishes. He explains why it’s important to have these discussions and have them recorded officially. The comfort families feel knowing precisely what was desired not only avoids confusion, it offers a family a sense of certainty they have done everything they could do to honor their loved one.

OUR 10TH ANNUAL HOLIDAY REMEMBRANCE SERVICE WAS A SPECIAL NIGHT
All of our Holiday Remembrance Services have found a personality of their own and they really are all very special. The theme this year was “Gratefulness”, and hundreds of people came and truly live up to that theme. You could absolutely see it, hear it and feel it; from the music, to the wonderful talk from Fr. Hector, the memorial pictures, all the way through to the fellowship of everyone in attendance, who together provided comfort and gracious memories. We’re very pleased to be able to host this service each year for the families we serve and all those who come to attend, share and provide comfort .
Enjoy our short video of the highlights:

We invite you to our 2019 Holiday Luminary Service on December 7
One of the most difficult things for many people is to experience the holidays after the loss of a loved one. Our annual Holiday Luminary is a very special opportunity to come together as a community to experience celebrating the lives of loved ones together. We’re sharing a video from last year’s Service to give you an opportunity to witness what it’s like beforehand.
We’ve chosen the first Saturday of December for our Holiday Luminary Service to gather early in this Special Season and share loving remembrance of our families and friends. As you’ll see in our video, it’s an uplifting experience for everyone who attends. Remembering is a very important part of the process of losing someone close. Doing so in a community of people who have so much in common with your feelings takes away a little bit of the sense of dealing with this alone. This year’s theme is “Gratefulness”.
Our Holiday Luminary Service means a great deal to our Glueckert Family too. We celebrate the lives of people we’ve lost from within our immediate family and friends along with you, as well as the entire community we have served over generations who have truly become part of our greater family.
Please Join Us. We would love to see you and remember, love and be grateful for all those we’ve loved ❤️
