Because the United States is so large and the people of our country move about so very much, it is is not unusual when a funeral delayed until the arrival of some of the relatives. If there were not embalming, the funeral would have to be held very shortly after death. Americans are basically religious people, and funeral services arc, therefore, religious occasions when members of the family gather together to recognize that God's will has been accomplished. The professional competence of our staff at the Metcalf Campbell Southern Utah Mortuary is one of the factors that makes a funeral possible and perhaps even a little bit easier to accept. i call ampM Southern Utah Mortuary Established in 1929 |
