Cremations

Cremation is an increasingly popular option for many people, serving as an alternative to burial. Reasons for preferring cremation vary. Some religions request it, while other people consider it more environmentally conscious. Some may simply prefer the idea of cremation. During cremation, the remains are placed in a special furnace and reduced to resemble coarse sand using high heat and flame.  Cremation is not the final disposition of the remains, nor is it a type of funeral service.

Cremated remains can be divided, scattered, buried, or kept with the family in a decorative urn. Some creative options for cremated remains include being placed in an artificial coral reef, launched into space, spun into glass pieces of art, or solidified into decorative stones. Our associates would be happy to help you choose the option(s) you prefer.
