Before You Attend a Funeral or Visitation

The funeral may be at a church or chapel rather than at the funeral-home address.
Event sequence
Viewing, visitation, funeral, burial and reception may occur at several locations.
Public or private
Confirm whether visitors are invited before travelling.
Cemetery
Do not assume Clayton means Pinecrest or Reidsville means Greenview.

Check whether the family requests flowers, charity gifts or another memorial.
Changes
Call before a long trip when weather or family scheduling may affect arrangements.
Pinecrest Memorial Park: What to Check Before Visiting
Pinecrest Memorial Park is on the same property as the Clayton funeral home, but a McLaurin funeral does not automatically mean the burial is at Pinecrest.
