Left to Right: Standing: Tom C. Golden Randy Garner Elmer Reuland Seated Virgil T. Golden Tom P. Golden Attention To Detail A funeral service is a very personal time for family and friends. To be a source of strength and comfort for all involved, the funeral must be conducted smoothly and quietly.

That requires staff to receive both friends and family, to coordinate parking, to direct pallbearers, to coordinate last minute details with the minister and musicians, to receive and arrange floral tributes, to answer questions, and to see that other funeral home activities don't intrude on the funeral. At Golden's, adequate licensed and trained staff members are present and available at all funerals we conduct, insuring that all goes as planned. Golden's Funeral Service.
