Our Aftercare Offerings
Aftercare is a word we use to describe services following the
actual ceremony. One of the most difficult parts about death is living
without your loved one. While we won't tell you it will be easy, we do
offer support. Our belief is that a funeral home should be more than
a place to have funerals. It should be the center of grief support and
education in a community. Also, it should provide information to assist
people with the transition loss creates.
"A funeral home should be more than a place to
have funerals.
It should be the center of grief support and education in a community."
At Ochiltree Funeral Service & Aftercare we have established
a grief and loss library complete with 175+ books, brochures, tapes and
videos for use by anyone searching for information to help them or others
cope with a loss. Our library not only addresses the losses created when
someone dies but we also have titles dealing with the death of a pet
and how to cope with loss such as life changes like divorce or aging.

Library List, please click here.
Additionally, we offer the following Aftercare events and
services:
- An annual Coping With the Holidays Seminar (Held in November)
- An annual Service of Remembrance (Held in December)
- Subscriptions to the TRANSITIONS or RENOVATIONS newsletters. These
publications arrive in the homes of the families we have served and
assist individuals in dealing with a life changed by loss.
- Assistance in locating professional support such as support groups
or counselors or therapists, if there is a need for support like this.
