Cremation Options

Jacobs Funeral Homes is the only funeral home in the area that has its own on-site crematory. Cremation can occur at any point in the funeral process. Some families choose to have a full funeral service with a visitation and a church service. Other families have a public or private visitation prior to cremation. They later hold a public memorial service when it is convenient for the family.
