Funeral Luncheons
Supporting families in their time of need with warmth, care, and community.
Funeral / Memorial Service Luncheon
WUMC has a wonderful group of volunteers who handle all of the kitchen work, serving, and clean-up so your family can focus on what matters most.
Requesting Church Assistance
If you would like the church to assist with your luncheon, please provide a phone number where someone can be reached in case any questions arise regarding food or service.
Items the Family Will Need to Purchase
The following items are typically not provided by the church kitchen and should be brought by the family.
Hot Entrées (Lasagna, Meatballs, Beans, Ham, etc.)
If desired, these items can be ordered from any local deli — they are often able to help you determine the right quantity needed based on your guest count.
Salads & More
Usually salads, bars, and other dishes provided by family and friends are enough to cover the luncheon. However, if there is a shortage of food, the kitchen helpers will — with the family's permission — purchase additional items from Ralph's Deli. A bill will be given to the family at the end of the luncheon.
