    **It is important to know an ID viewing is different than what most people have experienced during a traditional visitation. ID viewings do not include cosmetic improvements (also called restorative art) made to the deceased. The body is typically cleaned and placed on a cot or table covered with a sheet or blanket with the deceased face shown. It is truly meant for identification only. Depending on the condition of the deceased at the time of death, some may find this disturbing. Our experience is that knowing up-front how the body will be presented helps prepare loved ones, so the experience is a positive one. Extra Charges will be applied for autopsy remains call director for details.**
