  Arrangement Conferences

  Following the death of your loved one, our staff will schedule an arrangement conference with you and your family to help you start planning the service. During this meeting, your funeral director will present your options, help you make decisions for a personalized ceremony and gather important information about your deceased loved one in order to complete necessary documents. Questions we typically ask: What type of service would you like? Would you like a public or private viewing? Do you have a cemetery in mind for burial? Do you own property there? Do you have a location in mind for the service? What you need to bring: Social Security Number in order to file a death certificate Photo(s) of deceased for obituary, printed items, and styling Clothing and personal items if you would like a viewing Veteran information, if applicable (DD214 document) Notes and/or momentos to place with your loved one While there are dozens of things you need to know and decide following the death of your loved one, our staff at Evans-Nordby Funeral Homes will guide you every step of the way to make the process as easy as possible. Some services require the presence of a health care agent and the legal next of kin to make the decisions and sign off on forms.

  Pre-Planning

  Many people choose to personally pre-plan their funeral, just as they create their own will, arrange their inheritance, and plan an estate. In addition to providing peace of mind and ensuring that your wishes will be honored, pre-planning lifts the burden of funeral planning from your loved ones during a time of grief. At Evans-Nordby Funeral Homes, we know that funeral arrangement decisions are deeply personal. Doug Stolt, our advanced planning specialist, is experienced with helping families and individuals with pre-planning. Our pre-planning options allow you to take the time you need to make arrangements reflecting your standards, lifestyle, interests and budget. We assure you and your family that the choices you make will be carried out as planned. Many people also like to set aside funds during the pre-planning stage to cover funeral costs.

  For Veterans

  At Evans-Nordby Funeral Homes, we are deeply grateful for the veterans who have served our country. We always go above and beyond in preparing a ceremony that honors their sacrifices and lays them to rest with dignity. Coordinating services for a Veteran involves a few extra steps, but we will guide you through the entire process. Once you have supplied your veteran’s discharge papers (DD214), your funeral director will complete the VA’s burial benefits forms, flag application and help you apply for other eligible benefits. We will also work with local Veterans groups to coordinate military honors into the service and/or schedule interment at a National or State Veterans Cemetery like Ft. Snelling or Minnesota State Veterans Cemeteries.
