Many options are available to those who choose cremation services. Below are some brief descriptions of these options, designed to help you make your decision in planning a cremation funeral.

With this arrangement visitation is held for one or two days, with the deceased viewed in a casket, and concludes with a traditional funeral service, followed by the cremation. Giving friends and family an opportunity to view the deceased helps them in their grieving process. This service can also be personalized with a display of photographs and memorabilia of your loved one.

Similar to the service outlined above, this includes visitation and a traditional funeral on the same day, with the deceased viewed in a casket. Cremation takes place after the funeral service.

In this arrangement the cremation takes place prior to the memorial service. This memorial service can be held in the funeral home, church, or synagogue, and can be at any time that the family desires.

The cremated remains of the deceased can be given to the surviving family members for them to scatter, using a scattering urn. Some families choose to keep the cremated remains in an urn in their home, or bury them at sea or in a cemetery.
