The hallmark of the American funeral service is to enhance the dignity of mankind. This is done by meeting the needs of the deceased and of those who mourn before death, at the time of death, and perhaps for an extended period thereafter.

We, the Higgins family, for over 135 years and four generations, have been privileged to serve the families and the community as a whole with professional service and personal attention. Each family, regardless of race, ethnicity or religion, is regarded as unique in their customs, wishes and needs. The family and staff at Higgins "Home for Funerals" pledge to provide service that accurately reflects the needs of each individual family.
