Generally, a service of remembrance is conducted by a clergyman of the family's choosing. We encourage the active participation of the family in helping plan this part of the service. Many times family members take part by giving a reading, singing or assisting the clergy. If the ceremony is held in a church, there is no additional charge. Nor is there an additional charge for arranging and conducting fraternal services.
Some people choose to take care of the disposition of cremated remains themselves.
Scattering and burial at sea are the most common of these options. If this type of disposition is chosen in Washington State, there are regulations every family should be aware of. Please click here for guidelines regarding scattering on land and water.
