Basic Details To Know When Choosing A Memorial Park
One of the biggest funerary decisions is where someone should be laid to rest. This location will be the final stop on their Earthly journey and be the place where family and friends will come to pay respects and visit. Finding the perfect memorial park which offers the look, atmosphere and interment options desired at a price one can afford is important.
This type of facility is different from the traditional cemetery mainly in that it caters more towards the needs of those choosing cremation over burial. Though their practice began less than 100 years ago, their popularity has steadily increased. This may be due, in part, to the attractive appeal and flexible interment options.
They are known for their incredibly attractive landscaping designs. The expansive manicured lawns, winding lanes, strategically placed flower beds, luscious trees, statuary, buildings and maybe even a pond fill the facility's land. This combination welcomes guests and gives comfort that their loved ones are surrounded by beauty.
Some people choose cremation yet still desire to be buried in the ground. This can be achieved by placing ones ashes into a plot and capping the spot with a lovely engraved brass plaque which lays flush with the land. Those who wish may also opt for more upright structures such as benches or plinths instead of the flat plates.
Tombs and mausoleums are used for those desiring above ground accommodations. The housing takes many forms such as crypts for individuals, buildings to hold whole families, or walls that can shelter many people at once. With available designs being both ornate and austere, placement of these structures can be anywhere from an open space, within a fenced yard or as part of a garden.
Facilities such as this offer eternal resting places that are welcoming to those who may wish to visit their loved ones interred within. The landscaping is intended to be both calming and inspiring. The structures which house the urns may be of multiple designs in order to suit the personal and financial needs of all clients.
