Cremation
Cremation is an alternative to earth burial. Cremation is irreversable. A deceased person's body is placed in an appropriate container and then taken to a crematory. Visitation and religious services can follow if desired. Families may choose the type of container with which they are comfortable. We can help plan the cremation, as well as any other services.

Others do not wish to view the deceased. They may choose visiting with a closed casket. Some prefer a memorial service without the body present.

We offer a variety of keepsake options such as urns and jewelry, that provide a place to hold the cherished cremains.
