Shinglehouse funeral home remembers families
The Dusenburys of the Virgil L. Howard Funeral Home in
Shinglehouse announce their 13th annual Memorial Candlelight Ceremony to be
held at 5 p.m. on Saturday, December 21, at their funeral home, located at 118
South Union Street, Shinglehouse. The
Dusenburys stated, “We are proud to remember and honor our families that we
have been privileged to serve this past year; we know their hearts are heavy
this first Christmas without their loved one.
If we can further lighten their burden we have achieved our goal of
‘continuing to care forever.’” Each family they have served will be represented
by a white luminaria. The name of each
loved one will be read and a representative of that family, if present, is
invited to light their loved one’s candle.
If a family member is not present, a member of the Dusenbury family or
staff will light that candle. After the last candle is lit, a final candle will
be lit in remembrance of every family served since the Dusenburys purchased the
funeral home in 1984, continuing the legacy of a locally owned and operated
family business.
