Because we own and operate our crematory, your loved one never leaves the care of our certified crematory operators. Identification procedures are in place to ensure the highest level of care. Our state-of-the-art facility allows family members to be present during the cremation if desired.
This service is just like a Traditional Funeral Service, except cremation will follow the funeral ceremony instead of a casketed burial. Following the viewing, service, or ceremony and eventual cremation, the cremated remains can be buried, properly scattered, or returned to the family for safe keeping.
You may wish to proceed with cremation and then hold a memorial service or "Life Celebration" after the cremation process is complete. At the ceremony, an urn or other memorial items like pictures and memorabilia are often displayed
A cremation without ceremony is often referred to as a “direct cremation”. The funeral director meets with the next of kin to complete the required documentation. Once the funeral home obtains completed forms from the next of kin and receives the necessary permissions to cremate, the cremation is completed at our privately owned crematory. Cremated remains are then returned to the family.
