Lending Library

Novak-Ramm-Ziegler Funeral Home has expanded its Family Resource Center to include our new Lending Library.  We bring our library to Sheboygan as a part of our commitment to community outreach.  We feel strongly in our responsibility to share our expertise so as to better educate the community.

Our library contains more than one hundred and fifty books, videos, brochures and pamphlets on issues of loss in our daily lives.  Literature and videos can be checked out for a month at a time.  Simply visit our library between the hours of 8:30 A.M. and 4:00 P.M. Monday through Friday.  Our library includes materials on the following subjects:  loss and grief situations connected with the death of a family member, co-worker or friend; suicide, AIDS, SIDS, prenatal loss, divorce, and readjustment to life after abuse.

We also extend an invitation to individuals in our schools, churches, hospitals and civic groups to tour our funeral home.  Our tours provide the opportunity to learn firsthand about funeral service in our society today.
