Description

The goods and services shown below are those we can provide to our customers. You may choose only the items you desire. However, any funeral arrangements you select will include a charge for our basic services and overhead. If legal or other requirements mean you must buy any items you did not specifically ask for, we will explain the reason in writing on the statement we provide describing the funeral goods and services you selected. Certain funeral services may be provided by other funeral service providers.

We're not a big-city funeral home or a multi-location conglomerate. But, for many years now, we have been providing our community with warm, caring, compassionate service, respecting each family's decisions and performing each service with dignity, integrity and trust... All at a truly reasonable cost. We provide caring and respectful funeral services, funerals and cremations to both the proud residents of Bedford City and Bedford County, and also to those in the surrounding areas which include Roanoke, Lynchburg and Central Virginia.

Our charge for a direct cremation includes the removal of remains, temporary shelter of remains, transportation to the crematory, the filing of necessary permits and authorizations including the payment of the Medical Examiners fee ($50 ) and the crematory fee. State and local laws do not require a casket for direct cremation. If you want to arrange an immediate cremation, you can use an alternative container. Alternative containers encase the body and can be made of materials like fiberboard or composition material (with or without an outside covering).

At Burch-Messier Funeral & Cremation Service, we are proud to offer Outer Burial Containers from America’s leading manufacturer of Burial Vaults and Concrete Grave Liners – Wilbert. Available nationwide, our Outer Burial Containers are locally serviced by Richards-Wilberts, Inc. of Salem.
