Allnutt Funeral Service - Macy Chapel

The Roman word "pallium" refers to a person's cape or cloak, often used in relation to a soldier. When the person passed away, they were covered in the cloak. This led to the term "pall" and is a heavy, usually white, and sometimes ornate cloth that is draped over the casket. The terms "casket bearer" and "pall" were merged together to create the term "pallbearer" which refers to a person who carries the casket during a funeral service.

On Memorial Day, we remember our fallen heroes who have given their lives to serve our country. TAPS has resources for military families and survivors, providing compassionate care and community to help navigate the difficult journey of grief and healing.
