They’d like to discuss some of the general differences between a memorial service and a funeral service.

Funeral Services

A funeral service usually occurs at a place of worship and/or at the funeral home, with the deceased present. There is often a wake or visitation before the funeral service and a final deposition at a cemetery afterwards. After the burial, family members and guests will traditionally gather at a central family home. Leo M. Bean And Sons Funeral Home proudly serves clients of any faith, belief system, or choice of customs, and they will tailor the funeral service to your needs and desires.

Memorial Services

A memorial service typically occurs after cremation or burial, so the deceased is not present. A memorial service can be highly unique and is held at a place of the family’s choosing. It could be at the funeral home or at a place of spiritual or personal significance.

As well as offering diverse memorial and funeral services, Leo M. Bean And Sons Funeral Home offers full cremation services. They provide compassionate and personally tailored services and believe in keeping their pricing structure affordable. You can learn more about Leo M.
