Throughout the cremation process, the human remains are handled with respect and dignity. It really depends entirely on how you wish to commemorate a life. One of the advantages of cremation is that it provides you with increased flexibility when you make your funeral and cemetery arrangements. Funeral or memorial services can be held in a place of worship, a funeral home or in a crematorium chapel. Whatever you choose, we can assist you to give creative expression to your feelings and to make the arrangements both personal and meaningful.
All cremations take place in a crematorium.
Should you have any questions or concerns, we suggest you speak with a member of your clergy, or contact one of our Service Counselors. What is required is an enclosed, rigid, container made of wood or other combustible material to allow for the dignified handling of human remains. The type of casket or container selected is really a personal decision. Caskets and containers are available in a wide variety of materials ranging from simple cardboard containers to beautifully handcrafted oak, maple or mahogany caskets. Under no circumstances is the casket or container opened by crematorium staff.
