Ratterman & Sons


Facilities

Our main foyer is the first thing that families and guests see when they enter our home. We have staff greeters at the door during visitations to welcome and assist the community for family visitations.

There is a comfortable sitting area in the foyer, often used during night visitations, or while families are waiting to see one of the staff. The main foyer is open and spacious, and along with the entire facility was designed to make everyone feel at home.





There are five viewing rooms with the option of having a sixth visitation in the chapel. Our visitation rooms are large and are decorated to insure a warm atmosphere with sofas and chairs for the comfort of our families and their friends.






Just around the corner from the main foyer is the hospitality lounge. Our lounge was enlarged in 1999 to better serve our families. We provide individual areas for each family which includes their own countertop for serving food. There is always a pot of fresh coffee brewing and our staff provides each family with a tray of baked cookies. We are especially proud of our "child safe" room designed to include children as part of the family visitation. This separate room in our lounge area has a toy box, a television and VCR with children's movies showing which assists parents during family visitation.


We have three comfortable arrangement rooms used to meet with families making funeral arrangements, prearrangements and other consultations. These rooms are large enough to accommodate everyone who wants to be involved in the conference.






The sunshine radiates through our stained glass window making our chapel a magnificent place to celebrate the life of a loved one. This addition to the funeral home was added in 1999, and has a comfortable seating capacity of over 200 people. With our chapel having its own central air system, services remain comfortable even when full to capacity. The sound system and organ provide full, rich, beautiful sound with accommodations for a vocalist when requested. Additionally, we are able to video tape all services held in our chapel for families.


Our casket selection room offers an informative atmosphere to assist families in making their decision. We display caskets of every material available, wood, bronze, copper, stainless steel and steel as well as feature a full model display of Wilbert brand burial vaults. A display of Personal Tributes assist our families in personalizing their loved ones casket. A separate alcove for cremation caskets and urns allows for choices that honor cremation services with merchandise specific to cremation needs.
