When making cremation arrangements, keep in mind, you have unlimited options for memorialization. The most important thing is to create a farewell event that is meaningful and satisfying to you and others who will participate. Many people believe that choosing cremation means limiting your options. This is not the case. There is a wide variety of services and merchandise available to you.
Most families choose to hold services, which help the bereaved cope with the loss of a loved one.
Services or ceremonies can precede or follow the actual cremation. Prior to cremation there may be a gathering, which may be either public or private, with an open or closed casket. Following the ceremony, the final disposition of the cremated remains takes place. Cremation offers families choices for final disposition of the cremated remains and with cremation, you have the opportunity to select from a wide array of caskets, urns and keepsake memorials. This is a safe and very compassionate way to plan your service and save those you love from the decision-making process after your death.
