We are here to replace confusion with calm, doubts with certainty, and questions with answers. Here, one finds a quiet gentleness in an atmosphere of dignity, efficiency, and trust. We believe your service choice is a personal decision. At Hann Funeral Home we explain the options available, then allow you to make your own decisions.


Although services may be selected from the itemized portion of the
General Price List the following list may help you select the appropriate arrangements.


Traditional Service
A traditional service for burial, entombment or cremation, is usually the service of choice. At Hann Funeral Home we believe in the traditional funeral, because it best serves the needs of family and friends.
The traditional funeral service may include the following:


• Casket
• Transfer of the deceased to the funeral home
• Embalming
• Dressing, cosmetology and other care of the deceased
• Professional support and administrative staff assistance
• Use of visitation rooms
• General use of the facilities for the service and arrangements
• Funeral service
• Use of funeral coach
• Limousine
• Utility car
• Register book
• Acknowledgment cards
• Memorial folders or prayer cards


The traditional service is a meaningful expression for the family, and it gives friends and associates an opportunity to offer their tributes in the way of flowers or memorials to churches or organizations.


Generally, a member of the clergy or other person chosen by the family conducts a service of remembrance. We encourage the active participation of the family in helping plan this part of the service. Many times family members take part by giving a reading, singing or assisting the clergy.


Cremation Services
With cremation services is selected, a loved one's ashes may be placed in an urn and taken to a final resting place such as a family plot, urn garden, columbarium or a family member's home.


Sometimes cremated remains are divided into several urns. This option works well when family members live in locations across the country.


Others choose to have their ashes scattered in a special cemetery garden or over land or water (where permitted by law). In this case, a portion of the cremated remains is usually kept in a keepsake urn as a remembrance.


If you choose cremation, a funeral service is appropriate, and recommended. Survivors still need the time and setting to grieve. We offer many types of services specifically for cremations, from direct cremation with no casket present, to traditional cremation with a visitation, procession and memorial service. The choice is yours.


Additional Services


Personalization Services are available for all arrangement types. We believe that personalizing one’s funeral creates lasting memories. Each family is unique and the celebration of one’s life should also be unique. We offer many ideas when it comes to personalization, and there are no limits.

Pre-arrangement services

Pre-arrangement services
When pre-planning a funeral, all of your thoughts and wishes are planned for. Because you have worked directly with the funeral home, your family will know EXACTLY what you desire. At Hann Funeral Home, once your decisions are made, we'll help you put it in writing. This will ultimately help avoid questions or potential family disputes. Your loved ones won't ask: "Did we do the right thing? Did we forget anything? Is this what she/he wanted? Did we spend too much?" All that is eliminated because you put it in writing.

Since 1960, the number of pre-planned funerals has increased by 1000%. Why such a dramatic increase in Pre-Planned Funerals?

Because pre-planning guarantees:

• Your wishes will be fulfilled.

• You can spare your loved ones any unnecessary financial burden.

Pre-planning also allows you to involve your loved ones as you make your plans. In return, this can save the people you care about most from the emotional turmoil and burdensome decisions that an unplanned funeral can often bring.

Additionally, by making the decision to pre-fund now, you will lock in the cost of your funeral at today's prices, even if you live for another 50 years. When you pre-arrange and pre-fund, you can be assured that definite arrangements have been made and no other financial decisions need to be faced. A national financial institution, Homesteaders Insurance Company, holds your funds in a special contract tailored to your specific wishes. Pre-funding guarantees the cost will remain constant, regardless of inflation. This money is yours and is fully transferable from one funeral home to another. To see if your funds can be transferred to Hann Funeral Home, contact us at info@hannfuneralhome.com.
