Stewart Enterprises is much more than a death care company. We are thousands of heartfelt, professional individuals working together as a great team to serve families with their death care needs. We are moms and dads, sons and daughters and grandparents. We are school and church volunteers, little league coaches and Scout leaders. We are community leaders, civic organizers and association members. We are college graduates, licensed professionals and full- and part-time workers - we are just like you. Based on our purpose of caring for people, making a difference??, we have developed what we call our "CARING" cultural standards that we all believe in and demonstrate. They are: C: We Communicate honestly and clearly. We maintain eye contact and listen without interrupting, seeking first to understand and then be understood. A: We take pride in our Appearance, in our facility and grounds and in all that we do. We recognize that we make a lasting impression on the lives of others.

N: We address others by Nameto demonstrate interest and sincerity and to build relationships. G: We show Gratitude by saying thank you or by handwriting a note. We are privileged to serve customers, guests and co-workers and make a difference in their lives. These standards represent care, communication, respect, commitment, attentiveness and appreciation. We just happen to believe in doing the best we can to help people celebrate the lives of their lost loved ones and make sure they are memorialized as families wish. We do this every day through the many funeral homes and cemeteries we operate across the United States and in Puerto Rico. It's who we are. Death care is not a commonly used term. It means providing a complete range of funeral and cemetery merchandise and services, plus cemetery property, both at the time of need and on a preneed basis. It also means helping people - and taking care of every detail at a time when they need it most. It's what we do. Funeral operations Our funeral homes provide funeral services, memorial services, cremations, transportation services, removal and preparation of decedent, online remembrance registries and legacies, caskets, urns and flowers. We also provide complete personalization services to help families celebrate a life of their loved one. Cemetery operations Our cemeteries offer property and merchandise and services, including lots, lawn crypts, family and community mausoleums, inscriptions, burial site openings and closings, scattering options and niches. Prearrangements For more than 60 years we have offered families the opportunity to purchase funeral services and cemetery property ahead of time in order to alleviate this burden from their loved ones. Our prearrangement program is called The Simplicity Plan??. Click here to learn more about making prearrangements. Customer service People are what Stewart Enterprises is all about. Our customers depend on us not only to offer the highest-quality merchandise at the best value, but to provide the most caring and knowledgeable service possible. At Stewart, we understand that our customers have a choice. That's why we listen - really listen - to their needs, and are dedicated to making a difficult time a little easier.
