What To Know When Drafting Services For Cremation
More and more people are opting for cremation services in place of a traditional funeral, where an individual is buried in a casket. One of the major reasons for this is that this disposal method is much cheaper than a traditional funeral. Also, individuals who are concerned about the environment prefer this method of internment, as they feel that it is environmentally friendly.
Once you learn that your loved one has died, find a crematorium. You will then be directed on how what you should do so that the body can be cremated. This may include presenting some legal documents. In some states, you will have to get a letter of approval from your local council for the service to be conducted.
You can opt to have a funeral service or not. If you choose to have a service, you can have it before the body is cremated or afterwards. If the service is held afterwards, you can have the urn holding the ashes placed in a prominent place, where people can view it and have a photo of your loved one placed beside it.
If you want a service, you can have a religious leader conduct it. This can be someone you know or it can be someone who has been recommended by the funeral director. Have a photo of the deceased on display during the service.
For the body to be cremated, it has to be transferred to a cremator. The body is transferred the same way it was brought from the memorial service, without having anything removed. If you want the ashes, make sure to inform the crematorium and give them a container to store the ashes.
Cremation can be pre-planned. Some funeral homes allow people to pre-pay for this internment method before they die. This will save your family members the cost of organizing for the disposal of your body.
