About Us Services Merchandise Pre-planning Aftercare Obituaries


Our caring for you and your family continues

During the funeral arrangement conference you will receive an informational folder about the grieving process, as well as an invitation to receive support through our complimentary Pathways Through Grief© program. Participating individuals receive a follow-up phone call or personal visit, correspondence, and access to support groups, community services, books and videos.

Our qualified licensed counselors offer resources and support to grieving families at no cost. Their work with us compliments their private practices with the Center for Life and Loss Integration, and work with HospiceCare, Inc. and the University Hospital Palliative Care Program.

Additionally, families are offered two annual "Seminar and Time of Remembering" events. These take place every November and May at Olbrich Gardens in Madison, and provide a healing time for reflection in a supportive community setting.

"Some of us think we're pretty 'tough' and don't need coaching to help us through things… Sometimes the counselor's role is just to help with answering questions about what's going on with feelings weeks, or months, after a person has died."
- Pete Gunderson
