16.01.2022 To view or not to view The importance of a viewing Whether to have the body present and available for a viewing is often one of the most difficult decisions families have to decide on. A viewing may be important to a family for a variety of reasons such as, a family member may not have been present when someone passed away or had not seen them for a while. What does a viewing mean: The coffin or portion of the coffin lid is left open allowing the mourners the opportunity to... have one last look at their loved one to say goodbye. A viewing allows mourners the opportunity to share their grief and say goodbye on a personal level. Gifts, letters and photos may also be placed with your loved one at the time of a viewing. The mortuary attendants wash, dress and prepare a body in such a way that having a viewing may result in a better experience for the family; and therefore, are able to remember them in a better way than they may have seen them just after they passed. In some circumstances, a funeral home may advise the family against a viewing and other options can be discussed to ensure the family are still able to say goodbye. If a viewing will be taking place some time after a person has passed away, it may be necessary to consider embalming. This process can be discussed with the funeral director.

15.01.2022 PRE ARRANGING A FUNERAL Finney Funeral Services offer a service that allows you to arrange and prepay for your own funeral, or the funeral of a relative or friend. By prepaying for your funeral, you will be easing both the financial and emotional burden of funeral expenses on those you leave behind. By simplifying the arrangements needed when you pass away, you are taking away the stress and guesswork at a time when your loved ones are already burdened by grief.... If you would like to discuss options for prepaid funeral expenses, call our office and one of our prepaid specialists will help you through all of the decisions that need to be made in order to plan the funeral that you wish to have. Alternately, you can choose to pre-arrange your funeral by giving our specialised consultants all the details of your funeral wishes. There are no financial arrangements locked in place by this method, but you can be sure that your wishes are recorded and kept by us to make sure that your funeral is carried out the way you would want it. During this process, you may face the challenge of balancing your wishes with your family’s own needs as mourners. By recording and discussing your wishes with our funeral directors, we are able to put your needs first. We also discuss and consider with you your choices for your farewell, reflecting on how these will better help your loved ones after you have gone. Preparing a funeral plan is simple. Our consultant can meet with you at your home or at any of our offices. We’ll discuss your funeral arrangements and the options that best suit you and your family.
