Cremation Options

Cremation gives you the freedom of choosing a service that will best capture the spirit and life of your loved one. You can choose any combination of services or create your own for a truly personalized experience.

There can be Direct Cremation, with possibly a memorial service at a later date.

You may choose  a viewing and a wake service. This can be accomplished by using either a rental cremation casket or purchasing a casket suitable for cremation.

Or you may choose to have a traditional funeral with a church service or a funeral home service, a procession to the Crematory and committal prayers read at that time.

You can even have the same traditional funeral with the Cremains present instead of a having to rent or purchase a casket.

In the final stage of disposition, one can either inter the cremains in a family plot, or they could be scattered in a scattering garden, or they could be dispursed at sea or as many families choose, just kept in the family home in an urn reflecting that person's life.

As you can see, there are many options. And we wouild be glad to accomodate all your wishes to personalized any service you may choose.
