We're glad you asked With Gary Beasley Scott's Funeral Home SHOULD THE CASKET BE OPEN OR CLOSED? This question can only be answered by the family, never by the funeral director There are several options available to the family. The casket can be open during the hours of visitation and closed during the final rites or It can remain open during the final rites. It can also remain closed at all times.

The customs of the family's faith and the influence of their clergy man's thoughts may help determine what is to be done. Modem psychologists tell us viewing the deceased helps the family to accept the fact of death, especially when It may have been sudden or unexpected. If, however, the appearance of the deceased cannot be made acceptable, viewing may possibly be harmful. The family's own wishes on the desired procedure will always be the guideline for the funeral director at oar firm. We respect the family's wishes on all particulars of the funeral service as we try our very best to provide a truly persona and meaningful service.
