Can you have a service or visitation with cremation?

Absolutely. While several folks choose a simple cremation with no services based on either financial burdens, distance of family members, privacy , or just simply their beliefs, many families in our area are still very traditional and feel the need for a final goodbye and ceremony. While many packages are available to suit everyone ’ s needs, the full service ceremony is done in a manner which is just like a normal funeral, with the exception of going to the cemetery It can quickly reduce the cost of traditional services by almost half.

Do most people take the ashes, or are they buried or what happens after?

The laws do not recognize cremated remains as a human body after cremation has taken place, therefore there are no restrictions on what you may do Some choose burial of cremains, scattering , splitting the cremains amongst several family members or simply keeping them home in an urn. Though there are no state or federal laws banning these practices, certain public areas or cemeteries may have restrictions and its always best to check with those facilities before scattering

Do you provide the urn or is the family responsible?

All cremated remains will be put into a temporary urn container but many families choose an urn from here We offer a wide variety of urns, smaller keepsake urns and even personalized cremation jewelry that can hold cremated remains

While cost is on everyone ’ s mind in today’s world, finances are not the driving force of why cremation rates are rising With society being more transient, and family members are spread greater distances from one another, its getting harder to get everyone together for a traditional services People’s changing mindsets on the environment also plays a large role, not wanting to utilize grave space for an infinite number of years, cemeteries requires a lot of area on the planet and some believe the less of a carbon footprint they leave the better

Can you pre plan or pre pay cremation services ?

Yes you can By prepaying for services , it saves you money by locking in the current price You can prepay in full during the arrangement conference or even set up on monthly payments. Preplanning is important because new cremation laws are in effect that makes the process easier There is now a pre-need cremation authorization form expressing your wishes and a funeral declarant form where you can designate one individual to be in charge of your wishes, and no one can go back and change it ensuring you are having the type of service you want Cremation paperwork regarding next of kin is very strict, and this form prevents a tremendous mount of problems when death occurs.
