Give Us A Call
When a death occurs anytime day or night, call our 24-hour phone number (801) 363-5781. You will always speak to a Larkin employee who will answer your questions and gather necessary information. We'll set an appointment for you to meet with a funeral director to begin arrangements.
Contact Your Spiritual Advisor
Inform your clergy or spiritual advisor as well as family members and friends of your loved one's passing. They can provide spiritual guidance and emotional support during this difficult time.
Meet with Your Funeral Director
Your funeral director will promptly greet you and help you personalize and create the service that's right for you. Our professional staff is experienced in planning services for all faiths and coordinating every detail.
Gather Information
We'll need a photo and text for the obituary and funeral service program. Whether you choose funeral services or cremation, we'll need clothing for your loved one. Families can participate in the dressing process if desired.
