Click on that link to watch the service.
A few things to know:
-
If there’s no link, the funeral service isn’t being live-streamed. Every family is offered this service, but not all choose to use it.
-
Some families want to begin live-streaming before a service begins to make it more like a virtual visitation.
-
Not all services start at the exact time. Variables such as family, clergy, and technical issues can affect start times.
-
You probably will not hear music. Due to licensing issues, we’ll have to pause live-streaming while music is played. In most cases, we’ll play music before the service begins and after the live-streaming ends.
-
There is a delay of approximately 15 seconds between the real-time service and what you’re seeing via live-streaming.
-
We monitor every service to ensure high-quality virtual experiences and to resolve any technical issues as quickly as possible. However, due to the nature of live streaming, there may be interruptions.
