When faced with the difficult challenges that lie ahead, our staff is always available and ready to help you with your merchandise selections. Please feel free to contact us at (269) 621-4101 when the situation arises. Please note that certain items, especially urns, may take some time to be received, particularly if families wish to have merchandise personalized.
We offer many product catalogs in-person, but you may also look at the offerings we currently offer on our price lists by clicking the "View Items" links below. These offerings will change over time as inventory moves, or as merchandise becomes unavailable for purchase from the respective casket, vault or urn companies.
Caskets are specially designed boxes built from various woods, metals and steel made to contain the body of a deceased person. Caskets are typically used during visitations and funeral services for viewing the body. After the funeral services, if cremation has not been selected, the casket containing the body will be lowered into the ground during the committal ceremony at the cemetery.
Vaults are required by cemeteries and are lined and sealed outer receptacles that house the casket after burial. It protects the casket from the weight of the earth and ensures proper ground maintenance. It also keeps water from getting inside the casket area and prevents the ground in the cemeteries from settling.
Urns are containers that are designed to hold the cremated remains of a deceased person. Examples include traditional urns made of marble, wood, bronze or ceramic. There are also biodegradable urns for scattering ashes available. The purchase of an urn is not mandatory but may be required for burial in a cemetery or mausoleum.
The Calvin Funeral Home has partnered with Campbell Murch Memorials in Mattawan to provide families with a great selection of cemetery markers and memorials. Campbell Murch Memorials is a family-owned and operated monument company that has been serving Southwestern Michigan since 1894. They can create cemetery memorials, custom granite, bronze and aluminum plates and custom engraving.
Campbell Murch Memorials have a wide arrange of marker designs, as well as a plethora of granites from North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. While we have markers on site and can sell them, we encourage you to go visit Campbell Murch Memorials directly and personally meet with them. Their caring staff will take care of you, and they have many monuments and granites on site that funeral homes will not know is in stock.
