The funeral home staff provides for the temporary preservation of the deceased. Except in certain special cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a funeral with viewing. If you do not want embalming, you usually have the right to choose an arrangement that does not require you to pay for it, such as direct cremation or immediate burial. It is the policy of Joldersma & Klein Funeral Home that any time there is a public viewing of the body, embalming is required. We also require embalming for private viewing if the viewing occurs past 48 hours from the time of death or if a post-mortem exam including an autopsy or Gift of Life procedure has been performed.
