Hospice Red River Valley:
Wright Funeral Home and Hospice of the Red River Valley have collaborated to offer an aftercare program in the form of a quarterly newsletter. This newsletter offers timely help and support to the families we serve in the first year following their loss and is provided at no charge. For more information about Hospice Red River Valley aftercare, please visit their website by clicking on their logo.
Living Memorial Program:
Developed by Batesville Casket Company, in agreement with the United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service, the program has been responsible for planting more than 8 million trees and reforesting more than 14,500 acres in the past two decades. It is now the largest private reforestation project in the United States. Since 1976, the Living Memorial program has grown to include forests in Canada, as well as Australia.
When families select a Batesville® casket or an Options® cremation product, a tree seedling is planted in a national forest at no additional cost to you. While the tree bears no visible identification, you can take great pride in knowing that you are helping contribute to a major environmental initiative. Your family will receive a special certificate from the agency in charge of that particular tree planting activity in the United States, Canada or Australia.
More than just a fitting tribute, this program provides for trees that shelter our wildlife, reduce water and wind erosion and contribute to the purity of the air we breathe. Their existence brings comfort and hope. They will ensure that generations to come will know the beauty of a green planet. What better legacy to leave?
Family follow-up survey:
We are very interested to learn about opportunities for us to improve our service to the community. Each family we serve is offered a chance to evaluate our service and provide feedback to us, as well as to request additional information on grief, bereavement, support groups etc. This survey is part of our ongoing membership requirements in Selected Independent Funeral Homes and helps to ensure the quality of the membership in this organization. |
