For many families, the burial service is an important step in the grieving process, bringing everyone together to celebrate the life of the loved one they've lost. After more than a century serving Trumbull, CT, families in their time of need, our team at Abriola Parkview Funeral Home has helped plan and execute almost any kind of burial service you can imagine. Whether you're planning a more traditional ceremony or something idiosyncratic, our experienced and compassionate staff will help you make all of the decisions involved with planning a burial service for your loved one.

In general, traditional burial services involve both a visitation and funeral service, typically conducted in a house of worship or a funeral home. Family tradition and religious practices usually play an important role in determining what type of burial service you would like to hold, and where.

You'll also have to determine whether your loved one's remains will be interred in a cemetery, interred in an above-ground mausoleum, or cremated. For some families, spreading the ashes after cremation or taking them home is extremely meaningful, but installing them in a cemetery gives survivors a place to visit and mourn.
