CLEAR ALL SELECTIONS

Type of Service
There are 5 different types of services to choose from: Burial with Funeral Services, Immediate Burial, Direct Cremation, Cremation with Memorial Service, and Cremation with Complete Funeral Services.

Preparation of the Deceased
Embalming $495
 Except in certain cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a funeral with a viewing. If you do not want embalming, you usually have the right to choose an arrangement that does not require you to pay for it, such as direct cremation or immediate burial.
Dressing, Casketing, and Cosmetology $95
 This will need to be selected if you chose to embalm.
Dressing and Casketing Only $75
 This is only to be chosen when there is no embalming.

Services
This is where you will choose the services to be provided by the funeral home.  Check all that apply.  
Visitation Prior to Service $185
 This is for a visitation to be held one hour prior to the service at the funeral location. This service is not usually chosen when an evening visitation is chosen. This is not the same as "lie in state." "Lie in state" is something that comes as part of the funeral, there is no additional charge for it.
Evening Visitation $225
 This is for an evening visitation that normally lasts up to 2 hours. The visitation can be held at the funeral home or another facility.
Funeral to be Held in Our Chapel $225
 This is for a funeral to be held in the Gordon Mortuary Chapel. This service does include the committal service at the cemetery.
Funeral to be Held in Another Facility $225
 This is for a funeral to be held somewhere besides the chapel or graveside. This service does include the committal service at the cemetery.
Funeral to be Held at the Graveside $225
 This is for a funeral that begins and ends at the graveside or cryptside. There is no need to select this if you have chosen for the funeral to be held in the chapel or another facility, as the committal service was included in that price.
Cemetery Tent $95
 This is for the tent to be used for the graveside or committal service. This is not required, however, it is highly recommended that you choose this service.
Opening and Closing of the Grave $650
 This is for opening and closing the grave at a church, rural, or city cemetery. If the grave is in a memorial garden (such as Clingman Memorial Gardens or Frederick Memorial Gardens), then you are required to use them for this service, and are subject to their prices instead of the funeral home's.

Automotive
This is for helping you choose which automobiles will be used during the entire funeral process.  All of these prices are for  a 30 mile radius and include, but not limited to, hospitals and/or churches in cities such as Blacksburg, Gaffney, Spartanburg, Smyrna, Hickory Grove, York, Shelby, and King's Mountain.  If you have any questions as to whether there will be an additional charge, do not hesitate to call the funeral home and discuss it with Adam or Scott.  Check all that apply.  
Transfer of Remains to the Funeral Home $150
 This charge is for picking up your loved one from their place of death and bringing them to the funeral home.
Funeral Coach and Driver $145
 This is for using the funeral coach for the funeral.
Limousine and Driver $95
 This is for the use of the family car for the funeral.
Lead Van and Driver $95
 This is for the use of the lead van for the funeral. The lead van will be needed anytime there will be a funeral procession. If you have chosen a graveside service and do not wish for the family to be led to the cemetery, then there is no need for this automobile.
Flower Van and Driver $95
 This is for the use of the flower van for the funeral. It is very rare that the flower van is not needed for a funeral.
