Where these figures come from

This is the newest price list we found on the funeral home's website as of August 19, 2026. The document itself is dated May 22, 2025.
Still unverified, and so not claimed here: who owns this home; how this home operates, meaning whether it runs its own crematory and its own chapel.
Price is not quality. A higher figure does not buy a better funeral. Use these numbers to ask better questions, not to rank anyone.
