People Are Inclined To Incremating Over Burial

A traditional embalming and in-ground burial usually come to mind when burial services are discussed. They may have been the usual tradition for decades, but, the current trend is moving towards Funeral Cremation. One of the primary reasons for this is the reduced cost. A scattering ceremony can be conducted.

The idea is horrifying to some and it is even against some religions. However, the process of embalming is also fraught with unpleasant implications. It depends on the personal preferences of each family.

The first consideration after a death is who to select as the funeral director for final arrangements. The remains being treated in a respectful manner is most important, whether the body is embalmed or cremated. A memorial service can be arranged to follow either process.

There is also the option of burying the cremains, which is the term for the cremated remains, in a cemetery plot. Another option is to keep the ashes in a funerary urn. Ashes may also be scattered over water or at a location selected by the deceased prior to death.

This manner of disposal does not preclude a memorial service of any kind, including a graveside service if the ashes are to be buried. Some cultures demand the family witness the actual cremation. Most funeral directors will be agreeable to allowing this.

Many cemeteries build and maintain a columbarium. This is an indoor or outdoor structure that has spaces in which to place the cremains. A plaque identifies the decedent interred within.

An urn can also be kept in the home of a family member. Sometimes more than one family member will want to keep those ashes. In those cases, smaller urns can be purchased to each hold a portion of the ashes. In this way, everyone is happy.

The option of a Funeral Cremation can maintain peace among all family members. Afterwards, burial in the family cemetery plot is one possibility. The ashes may also be scattered or kept in an urn by one or more of those who loved the deceased individual.
