Funeral and Cremation Services for Fircrest Families
When a Fircrest family calls on us, we start by listening. Some families know exactly what they want, and others are arranging a service for the first time and need patient, unhurried guidance. Either way, we walk beside you.
We offer full traditional funeral services with visitation, a funeral service, and burial, along with graveside services and memorial services or a celebration of life for families who prefer a gathering after burial or cremation. For families who choose cremation, we provide direct cremation and cremation with a memorial or graveside service, along with a selection of cremation urns, keepsake urns, and cremation jewelry.
Every service can be personalized. Custom casket interiors, memorial portraits, tribute videos, and livestreaming let out-of-town relatives and friends take part, no matter where they live. We also coordinate veterans and military funeral honors, interfaith and cultural services, floral tribute coordination, and the paperwork involved in shipping or receiving remains when a loved one passes away outside of Washington. Our team arranges cemetery and interment details with cemeteries near Fircrest, handles embalming and body preparation, and offers pre-planning so your family's wishes are recorded ahead of time.
Call us any time you need to begin, day or night.
Why Fircrest Families Choose Scott Funeral Home
Scott Funeral Home has been family-owned and independent since founder Larry Ray "L'Ray" Scott opened its doors in October 1967. The Scott family has continued that legacy for more than fifty years, building relationships with Tacoma-area families that often span generations. Owner Coretta Harwood and the Scott family carry forward L'Ray Scott's history of community leadership in Tacoma, and that same commitment shows up in how every Fircrest family is treated today.
Because we are independent, arrangements are never rushed and never dictated by a corporate script. We take the time to understand what matters to your family, whether that means a full traditional service, a simple direct cremation, or something in between. For families who live outside the Tacoma area, including relatives coordinating a service from out of state, we offer the same patient guidance in person, by phone, or by video.
Personalization is part of nearly every service we arrange: tribute videos, livestreamed services for family who cannot travel, and custom keepsakes that reflect a life well lived. Families can also begin pre-planning so future decisions are already made with care.
