Why choose Wall Funeral Services
A Dedicated Staff
We are a staff of five licensed funeral directors who recognize meaningful services just don’t happen. These are events that demand focused planning, commitment, and the guidance of licensed professionals to provide meaningful tributes. Our funeral directors are equipped with the knowledge and expertise to guide families through the planning process for services that provide comfort for grieving families.
Exceptional and spacious facilities
We offer facilities that provide a spacious and comfortable atmosphere. Our facilities in Parsons and Girard allow us to serve multiple families concurrently and can accommodate large services. Our Parsons facilities offer a community room and the Wall Family Center (adjacent to the funeral home) that may be used for family gatherings for any occasion and meetings for various civic and community groups.
Personalized services for personalized needs
We know that the death of a loved one brings a unique grieving process and experience to each person. We are prepared to meet the needs of each family to provide personalized services that are unique to each family’s grieving experience. Our funeral directors and staff will work with you and your family to provide services that exceed your expectations. Since no two lives are the same there is no standard way of grieving the loss of a loved one. We strive to provide your family the unique and personalized care and service that reflects the life of your loved one.
Culture of hospitality
We realize that families and friends gather most often for funerals and weddings. That is why our staff and facilities are dedicated and designed to create a comfortable environment where family and friends can visit and share memories. Refreshments are often available during visitations as a part of our amenities. Also, kitchen facilities are available at our Wall Family Center and Parsons location for catering services.
Professional Development
We are members of the National Funeral Directors Association and Kansas Funeral Directors Association. These organizations provide essential continuing education and professional development through informative seminars and courses that are required to maintain Kansas Funeral Establishment, Funeral Directors and Embalmers licenses. Additionally, these organizations provide informative resources and ideas that allow us to better serve your family’s needs.

PAYMENT POLICY
We understand that the loss of a loved one can be a traumatic experience. The arrangements that must be made can be overwhelming and emotions may influence the decision making process. It is our desire that the arrangements that are made be a reflection of the family’s personal wishes and to remain within your budget. We believe that every life is worth honoring. Our staff will work with your family to create meaningful and therapeutic tribute for your loved one. Thank you for allowing us to serve you.
We accept the follow methods of payment prior to the service:
* Pre-funded funeral arrangements.
* Valid and verifiable life insurance assignment.
* Financing through a financial institution or lending agency.
* A valid cashier’s check, business check, personal check, and/or cash.
* A cashier’s check from the deceased’s bank account.
* Debit Cards, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and/or American Express (3% surcharge applies)
Except for pre-funded funeral arrangements, we do not extend credit or time payments in order to encourage families to select services and goods within their means. Our experience has proven that credit or time payments invariably lead to purchasing services and merchandise beyond the family’s means and will cause an unwanted financial hardship. Our payment policy is in the best interest of the family’s welfare. In the event our standard fees impose a financial hardship please make the funeral director aware of the situation and we will discuss plans that we have available to serve your needs.
Payment for cash advances items (i.e. sales tax, cemetery fees, gratuities, flowers, newspaper fees) are due at the time of the arrangements conference. We advance payment to these third parties as a convenience to the families we serve. You may issue payment directly to these third parties if you desire. Account balances that are more than 60 days past due are subject to be turned over to a collection agency.
