 To get an idea of what's involved in prearrangement, you may want to stop by and talk with the staff at the locally owned and operated Elias, Cal Allen, Shaw Funeral Homes and Crematory in Alton, Bethalto, and Godfrey. We're pleased to be considered a leader in prearrangement. We're talking with people about their hearing. Sir, can I ask you about hearing loss? Hearing costs? You're right. Inflation is way out of control. Actually, I was talking about how important hearing is to every aspect of life.
