Q. ; My mother has organized a pre-
arranged funeral with a graveside
service. If our family wants to change
that for any reason, such as the weather,
can we alter the arrangements?
A : Yes, we meet and review all of
the arrangements. When a graveside
service has been predetermined, there
is an understanding that severe
weather could alter the plans..
