Welcome to Handler Funeral Homes
We are here for you...
Before, During and After the Need
Our Funeral Homes, located in Tecumseh and Clinton,Michigan
offer comfortable and homelike environments to memorialize
and pay tribute to a loved one. We guide you through this most
difficult decision making so that you can celebrate the life of your loved
one, acknowledge their life accomplishments, their love, and the ways in
which they touched your lives and the lives of others.
Our staff realizes that funeral services are intented as much for family and
friends as they are for the deceased. We understand that whether
attending traditional funeral services or cremation services in our
funeral homes, family and friends must be able to begin the grieving process in
a supportive environment. Reflections on a deceased person's life often cause
those in attendance to recall their own best moments with that person. This
reflection and celebration helps people grieve in a healthy and meaningful
manner.
Handler Funeral Homes takes pride in the funeral services we
provide. These include: traditional funeral services, cremation
services, memorial services, cemetery monuments or grave markers, and
funeral pre-arrangements. We are able to assist in planning that special
and unique celebration. Funeral services or cremation services don't
have to be dictated by tradition. Instead, the service can be planned
to be a reflection and a celebration of...
~A Life Lived, A Life
Loved, A Life Lost~
We stand
behind our axiom:
Before, During, and After the Need.
Families can be assured that we will be
there...
BEFORE
The most difficult time to make funeral arrangements is when you have
to. Locally owned Handler Funeral Homes encourage their friends and
neighbors to make Pre-Arrangements for their funeral/memorial services and
ease the burden on their loved ones during this difficult time. Avoid
emotional decision making by familiy members for caskets, grave markers or
monuments, cemetery burial locations, type of service, etc.. by pre-arranging
with us.
After the death of a loved one many questions have to be answered, and
information collected for the state death certificate, necessary permits,
and writing newspaper obituary notices before burial or cremation can take
place. Gathering this information can be difficult because emotions are high,
whether the death was expected or not. As a society, we plan for
things such as retirement, our children's education, vacations, etc, these are
things that may or may not occur. We do know that death, at one time or another,
will occur, so it makes sense to plan for your funeral/memorial by
pre-arranging with us.
DURING Handler
Funeral Homes, as caring and professional funeral directors, take great pride in
our services and staff with beautiful chapels located in Tecumseh and Clinton,
Michigan. We have the most professional, caring, compassionate and thoughtful
staff in the area. We assist our families in planning a celebration with funeral
services or cremation services that best pay tribute to the life of the
deceased. We assist our families in all aspects of planning in a
respectful, ethical, and meaningful manner. It doesn't matter how elaborate or
private the tribute is. Our families leave here knowing they made the
right decision whey they chose Handler Funeral Homes.
There really is a difference
in value and service.
AFTER Both
our Tecumseh and Clinton Funeral Homes take great pride in the follow up
program that we have developed. We stay in touch with the families we
have been privileged to serve for approximately one year. We don't become
pests or drop in unexpectedly, but we have found that touching base during
important times such as holidays and anniversaries can be very helpful to the
family. We stress that the coffee pot is always on and a kind ear is always
available.
THEY WILL NOT BE
FORGOTTEN  We also take great pride in our Annual Memorial
Service entitled They Will Not Be Forgotten. We provide this
memorial service to the entire community as a whole once a year, on the weekend
before Mother's Day. One of our greatest fears as survivors is that our loved
ones will be forgotten. This special service alleviates that fear by
giving families an avenue to remember in a safe setting with others who
have also experienced a loss. The memorial service offers much comfort to
those who have experienced a loss in the past year or in the not so recent past.
It helps us too. We become attached to those families we are privileged to
assist at this important time in their lives, and it allows us to see that
they are healing, as difficult as it may be.
We are currently making preparations for our thirteenth annual service
which will be held on Saturday, April 30, 2011 at the Tecumseh Riverbend Friends
Church at 7 PM. If you would like your loved one included in next
year's service please Contact Us at
