Temple dressing is one of the most sacred parts of a Latter-day Saint funeral. The deceased is dressed in their own temple garments and white burial clothing before being placed in the casket. At Abrazo, this process is handled entirely in-house by our team — with full understanding of LDS standards and complete respect for the significance of each step.

Families should bring the deceased's own temple garments and white burial clothing. If these are not available or the family needs guidance, our team will walk you through everything calmly and without pressure. We have done this many times and we know how to make a difficult moment as peaceful as possible.

Hindu tradition calls for cremation as soon as possible after death — ideally within 24 hours. Abrazo Funeral Home takes this urgency seriously. When you call us, we begin coordinating immediately. Call us at any hour — we answer 24 hours a day.

We serve Latter-day Saint families in Mesa, Gilbert, Queen Creek, Chandler, San Tan Valley, Apache Junction, and the surrounding communities. The East Valley is home to one of the largest LDS populations in the United States, and we are honored to serve these families. Our team comes directly to your home — you do not need to travel to our Apache Junction location.

One of the most loving gifts a Latter-day Saint family member can give is a pre-arranged funeral plan. Documenting your temple clothing preferences, your desired service format, and your burial wishes means your family will not have to make those decisions during the hardest days of their lives. Abrazo offers in-home pre-arrangement consultations for LDS families throughout the East Valley — at no obligation.
