Here at Koch Funeral Home we believe our service to families continues even after the funeral ends. We support our clients throughout the grief journey as they heal and transition into a new way of being. One way we are offer this support is through our Monday’s Moments.
Our intention with Monday’s Moments is to offer you a short respite – a moment to stop, take a deep breath, read a few words and ponder their meaning. The staff at Koch Funeral Home knows grief can be dark at times. We hope that Monday’s Moments will provide you with some information and inspiration to help provide light for your journey. Make it a weekly event to visit - it only takes a moment!
