Traditional Funeral Service followed by Cremation
Many families find meaning and beauty in a traditional funeral service. With a traditional service combined with cremation, you can still choose to have a final viewing, visitation or wake, and a funeral service. However, instead of in-ground burial, the funeral will be followed by cremation. Depending on your wishes, the cremated remains may be either returned to your family for storage in an urn, scattered, or interred in a columbarium. This option will include fees for the funeral services as well as the fees associated with the cremation itself.
Memorial Service
The funeral service can be held in a church or any other venue the family chooses. We work with our families to design a service that honors their loved one with stories, music, or scripture. We also have life celebrants who lead services where clergy may not be chosen. Our celebrants are trained in creating experiences that help start the healing process.
Graveside Service
A graveside or committal service is typically held immediately following the funeral service, but it can also be a small, intimate gathering of those closest to you.
Permanent
Memorialization
Keeping an Urn at Home
This is a common choice. Families can select the perfect urn for their loved one.
Placing the Urn in a Columbarium (aka, a "niche")
Many families find comfort in having a final resting place that they can visit.
Burying the Urn
Similar to a casket, an in-ground burial of the urn allows for a final resting place.
Scatter the ashes
Some families find comfort in scattering the cremated remains at a place that was special to their loved one.
