Cremation Plans

We work with you to create a service plan that fits your needs. It can be as personal as you wish, made with us in total confidence.

Although cremation dates back to ancient times, it has only recently become a more common choice throughout the United States. People choose cremation for a variety of reasons. Some do so based on environmental considerations. Others have philosophical or religious reasons.

Many people believe that choosing cremation means limiting your options. Actually, there are a variety of options available with cremation. Most families hold services, which help the bereaved cope with the loss of a loved one. Many people find that opting for cremation gives them the opportunity to create and personalize the various service options for a more meaningful experience.

The greatest misunderstanding about cremation is the belief that with cremation, there is no need for services. However, a service or memorial ceremony is an important step in helping the bereaved overcome their grief, and gives family and friends the opportunity to honor a loved one.

Services or ceremonies can precede or follow the actual cremation. Prior to cremation, there may be a gathering, which can be either public or private, with an open or closed casket.

Classic Cremation Plans:

These plans allow for some or all of the elements traditionally thought of when planning funeral services. With the classic plans, the cremation is done following the service type chosen. They may include but are not limited to:

  1. Viewing with the casketed remains of the deceased present in either our funeral home or other venue.
  2. Visitation to be held on a separate day from the actual funeral ceremony or combined with the ceremony of your choice on the same day. The visitation affords time spent with family and friends to remember and honor the death of one we love.
  3. Formal funeral ceremony at an appointed time either in our funeral home, church or other venue. The formal ceremony allows for clergy or funeral celebrant to pray, eulogize and commemorate the life of the one we love.
  4. These plans may also include, following cremation, the gathering of family and friends to finalize services together at a cemetery for the burial of the cremated remains of the deceased at a later date.

These plans do not include merchandise, crematory, cemetery, clergy or church, flowers, newspapers or any non funeral home related expenses.


Contemporary Cremation Plans:

These plans are similar to the classic plans; however services and ceremonies are provided with or without the cremated remains of the deceased present. Cremation is done prior to the service type selected. They may include but are not limited to:

  1. Visitation to be held on a separate day from the actual funeral ceremony or combined with the ceremony of your choice on the same day. The visitation affords time spent with family and friends to remember and honor the death of one we love.
  2. A Formal or informal funeral ceremony at an appointed time either in our funeral home, church or other venue. The formal ceremony is conducted by clergy or funeral celebrant. The informal ceremony may be conducted by family or friends. Both allow you to pray, eulogize and commemorate the life of the one we love.
  3. Contemporary plans allow for a greater flexibility when planning services. These services are often provided and adjusted to the convenience of family and scheduling issues.

  4. These plans do not include merchandise, crematory, cemetery, clergy or church, flowers, newspapers or any non funeral home related expenses.


    Simplicity Cremation Plan:

    The simplicity plan is a basic cremation plan with no funeral ceremony, visitation or grave side service. These services may be added to this basic plan, but will fall under the category of the Contemporary Cremation Plans. This plan is limited to:

    1. Private family goodbye viewing only
    2. A basic container for the deceased for the cremation process
    3. Cremation with no rite or ritual.

    This plan does not include merchandise, crematory, cemetery, clergy or church, flowers, newspapers or any non funeral home related expenses
