Demi Burden tells us more about Chiles-Laman and the services they provide.
Funeral directors from across the region gathered in Lima today as part of a statewide requirement to stay up to date on laws and best practices in the industry.
Chiles-Laman Funeral Home will host their 32nd annual Tree of Remembrance Service at their Shawnee Chapel location this upcoming Saturday at 3 p.m. The service is open to everyone and attracts hundreds each year as a way to honor lost loved ones. Families who lost someone in the past year will receive a free ornament engraved with their loved one's name.
It was all treats and no tricks when a local funeral home opened up its parking lot to give back to the community. Chiles-Laman Funeral Home held a Trunk or Treat at their Shawnee Chapel. They put the word out and over 20 vehicles, some decked out in their own costumes, were on hand to pass out treats to the kids. The funeral home also handed out popcorn and drinks to the costumed candy seekers and their parents. Organizers thought this would be a fun way to celebrate Halloween.
