Personalization
The funeral directors at Bauer Family Funeral Homes are here to assist you and your family in creating a personalized funeral or memorial service that suits your loved one and creates comfort for family and friends. Please feel free to discuss with your funeral director any ideas you have or special elements that you would like included in the service for your loved one. We make every effort to listen carefully to our clients and to accommodate their individual requests. Our funeral directors' painstaking efforts in this regard often set the Bauer Family Funeral Homes apart.
We offer many different ways to create a meaningful service that range from customizing caskets with special interiors to engraving urns to reflect your loved one's interests. We are able to create unique video tributes, memorial folders and service bulletins to provide lasting tributes. Our funeral directors have extensive experience in arranging the unique details of military and/or fraternal services if your loved one served in the armed forces or was a devoted member of a fraternal organization.
Your loved one's service may be personalized in other ways, which include a dove or balloon release, a soloist or a bagpiper or special music during visitation. We frequently work with talented local florists to create special arrangements that vividly reflect your loved one's interests or fondness for a particular color palette.
At the Bauer Funeral Homes, we have displayed a virtually limitless variety of items to symbolize the deceased's hobbies ranging from motorcycles to quilts, paintings and sports memorabilia. We have conducted funeral and memorial services in locations such as a tennis court, an ice arena or a high school gymnasium to create an especially personalized illustration of your loved one's interests.
The funeral procession to the cemetery can also be customized. We have arranged for a wide variety of vehicles such as fire trucks, horse drawn carriages and tractors to transport the casket to the cemetery.
These are just a few of the many options that can be coordinated by our experienced funeral directors to create a truly meaningful ceremony that celebrates the very special qualities of your loved one's life.
