WHAT COSTS ARE
INVOLVED IN A
TRADITIONAL FUNERAL?
Generally there are five
funeral expenses which can
be incurred:
1) Professional services of
a funeral director and
his facilities, staff,
equipment and casket;
2) The cost of a cemetery
plot and the opening of
a grave;
3) The use of a concrete
vault, liner and burial
shell;
4) Monument or grave
marker, and
5) General expenses such
as newspaper notices
and flowers etc.
Most of them have a fairly
wide range of cost
depending on the family’s
needs. At the Betts Funeral
Home we believe that the
funeral expenses be
appropriate to the needs of
the family. We spend a
great deal of time with each
and every family in order
that all details are carried
out as they intended. Feel
free to call me at anytime to
explain the different options
that are open to you.
