Flexibility to Meet Your Needs

At Cortez Cremations & Funeral Services, we understand that the timing of a memorial service is a personal decision. We offer the flexibility to schedule the service shortly after cremation or at a later date to accommodate family and friends' travel arrangements. This flexibility also allows for a more extended planning process, enabling greater personalization and family involvement in creating a truly special tribute.

Every Detail Considered

Each memorial service is designed to reflect the unique life of your loved one. We can arrange visitations, readings, musical selections, and opportunities for friends and family to share memories. The choice is yours: a traditional memorial service or a celebratory "Celebration of Life" event.

A Celebration of Memories

The memorial service should be a reflection of the individual, a space to share laughter, tears, and cherished memories. We encourage families to showcase their loved one's life through photos, memorabilia, awards, and personal creations displayed at memorial tables. Music, both live and pre-recorded, can further personalize the service and create a lasting memory for those who attend.
