Crematory Repair


People Prefer Cremation 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.

Disposition by fire brings horrible connotations to some. However, the embalming procedure also has unpleasant implications. It seems to be a matter of personal opinion as to which is preferable.

The most important thing to consider is the reputation of a funeral director to serve the family. It should go without question that the remains are treated with the utmost respect through all phases of the process. A memorial service can be held that is comparable to one held prior to an in-ground burial.

In many cases, the cremains, which means the cremated remains, are buried with other family members in a cemetery. Alternatively, ashes are kept in a funerary urn. Ashes can also be scattered over water or land as the deceased requested prior to death.

The same services can be arranged to follow the cremating procedure. There are some religions and some cultures that require family members to witness the actual cremation. Most directors can arrange for this attendance.

There is a building, called a columbarium, that many cemeteries have. The building can be an indoor or outdoor construction with spaces to hold the cremains in their urns. Each person has a plaque which identifies him by name.

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.
