Funeral & Cremation Services
Maxwell and Helt are two of the most trusted names in Clinton County when it comes to end-of-life care. We offer a variety of services, including both traditional and contemporary burial and cremation services that provide personal attention to our families to honor and pay tribute to their loved ones. We strive to be at the forefront of innovation in caring for families, creating unique life tributes for every family served. If you are ready to make arrangements or have any questions, please feel free to call us any time at Renovo (570) 923-0228 or Mill Hall (570) 748-2722.
We believe every life is worth remembering and every service provided must be beautifully memorable, more than expected and perfect in every way. You will find us to be flexible, accommodating and very receptive to answering any questions you might have.
At the arrangement conference, we will discuss all your options which will enable you to choose a service that is just right for you. Our staff is courteous and sympathetic, our facilities comfortable and spotless, and our services handled with warmth, dignity, and respect.
If there is any item of the funeral home's professional services or facilities that you are not completely satisfied with, there is no charge for that item of service. We take the risk out of selecting a provider.
The following outlines an overview of the steps taken by our experienced and caring Funeral Directors:
- We transfer the deceased person into our care, from place of passing to the funeral home (anytime day or night 24/7)
- Notify proper authorities, family and/or relatives
- Arrange and prepare death certificates
- Procure certified copies of death certificates after determining with the family how many certified copies will be needed to settle the estate.
- Prepare and file all paperwork to ensure survivors receive any benefits they may be entitled to receive from Social Security, Veterans Administration, Railroad Retirement, etc.
- Prepare and submit obituary to the newspapers of your choice
- Bathe and prepare the deceased for final disposition. Depending on the services selected, this may or might not include embalming, which is only required by law in certain circumstances.
- Prepare the deceased for viewing including dressing and cosmetics
- Assist the family with arranging an appropriate service that is just right for the family as well as assisting with the selection and arrangement for all other relevant items including outside parties.
- Arrange for the final disposition either scheduling for the cremation or scheduling the opening and closing of the grave if the deceased is to be interred.
- Coordinate with clergy or certified celebrant if a funeral or memorial service is to be held
- Arrange a transfer and cortege to the cemetery
- Order flower arrangements as the family may wish
- Provide aftercare resources or grief assistance, to the bereaved
If a death has occurred
Please call us immediately when a death occurs, especially if the passing is at home. We will come right away. You can reach us any time day or night 24/7. Even if you want some time before we arrive, please call to make us aware of the passing so we can prepare for the transfer into our care.
Together we can determine the time you wish us to arrive that you feel would be right for you. If an attending physician or hospice care professional advises you that a passing is imminent, consider calling us then if only to make us aware and maybe answer any questions you might have at that time.
For more information, our funeral directors are available at any time, day or night. Please call us now at Renovo (570) 923-0228 or Mill Hall (570) 748-2722 with any questions or to learn more about your options.
