As the spread of COVID 19 fills the media markets and alters our choices and lifestyles, we at Shoreline Memorial Services wish to express our concern and solidarity with our families, friends and community. We will continue to operate and be available to people in need of mortuary services of any kind. At this time, some of our families are being forced into rethinking the memorial gatherings and traditional funeral structures of the past. Postponement and even canceling of public services are becoming a necessity as we deal with the restrictions of gathering sizes implemented by our government and health professionals.

Our funeral homes remain open to our customers and we are offering some minor changes, when appropriate, to protect the health of all involved. With the health of our community in mind, we are striving to accomplish as much as we can with our client families remotely. We are now providing you the choice to communicate with us via phone, email and fax to get as much of the needed paperwork done ahead of the actual arrangement conference, therefore eliminating most, if not all, face to face contact. For those who choose this, the amount of time required to be at our facility will be abbreviated and used only to sign the legal documents and contracts necessary to proceed with your wishes. In some cases, the whole process may be able to be done using this method if you so choose. Either way, throughout the communications on the loss of your loved one, you will continue to be in direct contact with David and/or Doug, owners and licensed funeral directors.

We understand that due to health restrictions at nursing homes, hospitals and hospice facilities, families may not be able to gather or be with their loved ones at the time of passing. In response to this we assure you that we will still offer a time of private family viewing to all our Plan C simple cremation families, at no additional fee, when possible.

Please contact us directly if you have any questions regarding this information or questions on any of the services we offer. We will continue to do our best to earn your trust and to serve our families and communities through this difficult time and beyond.

Sincerely,

Doug & Dave
