The staff and Parker Memorial Funeral Home prioritize the health and well-being of our associates, family and guests. We understand this is a fluid and serious situation that we are in today and that we are monitoring and evaluating developments of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
We and the state still believe that gathering and supporting one another at a time of loss is very important. At this time, we are asking everyone to support a limited gathering and visitation policy. This is a guideline of the CDC and the state board of health. We will be allowing small family groups and limited persons at visitation, funerals and gravesides until this crisis is over.
We do ask that those at risk or those not feeling well stay at home, but reach out to the family via the memorial webpage on www.parkermemorialfuneralhomes.com. Also we are listing family addresses where you may reach out to them and send them a card or a note of encouragement in their time of loss. Flowers and expressions of sympathy are still being accepted.
We also ask those who are attending visitation and funeral services to follow the CDC recommendations to take the usual steps to help prevent the spread of illness. Social distancing is very important in the control of the spread of this virus.
Thank you for your patience and understanding in this time we are in with the (COVID-19). When this crisis is over we will resume our normal procedures and operation.
Prayers are with all of you, we trust that God will protect and strengthen us as we get through this crisis together. “Faith does not mean trusting God to stop the storm, but trusting Him to strengthen us as we walk through the storm”.
