Traditional Service Followed by Cremation

Many families prefer a traditional funeral service, which we can combine with a cremation. This allows you to have a final viewing, visitation or wake, as well as the funeral service. Instead of an in-ground burial, the funeral is followed by cremation. Depending on your wishes, the cremated remains can be returned to the family for storage in an urn, scattered or interned in a columbarium. This option includes fees for the funeral service along with the cremation itself.

Memorial Service Along With Cremation

A memorial service can be held in our chapel, a church or other venue of your choice. We work with families to design a customized service honoring their loved one with stories, scripture or music. We also have life celebrants available to lead services where clergy may not be chosen. They are trained in creating experiences to help start the healing process.

Graveside Service With Cremation

A graveside or committal service can typically be held immediately after the funeral service. It can also be a small, intimate gathering of those closest to you.

Permanent Memorialization Options

• Keeping an urn at home - This is a common choice. We help families select the perfect urn for their loved one.
• Placing the urn in a columbarium (or “niche”) - Many families find comfort in having a final resting place that they can visit whenever they want.
• Burying the urn - Similar to a casket, the in-ground burial of the urn allows for a specific location for the final resting place.
• Scattering of the cremated remains - Some families find comfort scattering the cremated remains in a place that was special to their loved one. Or an individual will choose this location in their final wishes.
