Choosing cremation neither eliminates nor does it require a funeral service.
Traditional or contemporary services are often planned before or after the cremation process. A funeral service followed by cremation may be exactly the same as a funeral service followed by ground burial.
Traditional Service
followed by Cremation
The Traditional Service will be just like a funeral service except cremation will follow instead of the 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 safekeeping.
Cremation with
a Memorial Service
A memorial after the cremation is a service to honor the life of the deceased and pay respects. Cremation memorial services are a common practice, increasing with the incidence of cremation itself, and there are specific details to consider when planning a cremation memorial.
