| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation and Interim Condensed Disclosures Our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited, but include all adjustments, which consist of normal, recurring accruals, that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations as of and for the interim periods presented. There have been no material changes in our accounting policies previously disclosed in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in Note 1 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In addition, our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in a manner consistent with the accounting principles described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, unless otherwise disclosed herein, and should be read in conjunction therewith.

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our critical estimates and judgments, which include those related to the impairment of goodwill and the fair value measurements used in business combinations. These policies are considered critical because they may result in fluctuations in our reported results from period to period due to significant judgments, estimates and assumptions about complex and inherently uncertain matters and because the use of different judgments, assumptions or estimates could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change. Historical performance should not be viewed as indicative of future performance because there can be no assurance the margins, operating income and net earnings, as a percentage of revenue, will be consistent from period to period.

| Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant, and equipment is comprised of the following (in thousands):
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we sold two funeral homes and three cemeteries that had a carrying value of property, plant, and equipment of $3.4 million, which was included in the gain on sale and recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals, and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, more fully described in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, we sold real property for $3.0 million, with a carrying value of $1.0 million, resulting in a $2.0 million gain on the sale, which was recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals, and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we sold six funeral homes and one cemetery that had a carrying value of property, plant, and equipment of $3.1 million, which was included in the loss on sale and recorded in Net (gain) loss on divestitures, disposals, and impairment charges on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, we sold real property for $0.3 million, with a carrying value of $0.3 million. Our growth and maintenance capital expenditures totaled $1.4 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $3.0 million and $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Cemetery Property Cemetery property was $110.7 million and $112.9 million, net of accumulated amortization of $73.7 million and $72.6 million at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. When cemetery property is sold, the value of the cemetery property (interment right costs) is expensed as amortization using the specific identification method in the period in which the sale of the interment right is recognized as revenue. Our growth capital expenditures for cemetery property development totaled $1.4 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $3.0 million and $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recorded amortization expense for cemetery interment rights of $2.2 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $4.1 million and $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

| Accounting Pronouncements | Income Taxes In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU, Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments in this update require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation; and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (loss) by the applicable statutory income tax rate). The amendments in this update also require that all entities disclose on an annual basis (1) the amount of net income taxes paid disaggregated by federal and state taxes; and (2) the amount of net income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which net income taxes paid is equal to or greater than five percent of total net income taxes paid. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and therefore were effective for us for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2025, and for interim periods within our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2026. The adoption has no material impact on our consolidated financial statements as it modified disclosure requirements only. Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Expense Disaggregation In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. Additionally, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01 to clarify the effective date of ASU 2024-03. The standard provides guidance to expand disclosures related to the disaggregation of income statement expenses. The amendments in this update require, in the notes to the financial statements, disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses, which includes purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective or prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We expect the adoption will have no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements as it modifies disclosure requirements only.
