Basics To Expect When Considering A Memorial Park
Choosing a final resting place for oneself or a loved one is a personal decision. This is the location where a person's remains will be interred forever, as well as where friends and family may come to visit and pay respects. Selecting the right memorial park with the look, feel and options that meet one's particular tastes and needs is important.
These facilities vary from traditional cemeteries in that they are designed as housing for cremations rather than casket burials. They have only been in practice for less than a hundred years but are growing in popularity. Their flexibility and attractive design features are some of the things that make them so appealing.
One of the first things people notice about these places is their beautiful landscape designs. They are meant to feel pleasant and comfortable with meandering trails, well placed flower beds, ponds, a variety of trees and structures that are attractive and pleasing to see. These elements combined create a welcoming atmosphere for visitors of all ages.
For those who wish to be cremated but still desire an in-ground interment, this can be accommodated in several creative ways. The holding container can be placed in an appropriately sized plot and covered with a personalized bronze plaque that lies flush with the lawn. One may also choose to have their marker placed on a bench or pedestal over their resting spot.
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.
These facilities offer a person the chance to spend their eternity in a place which welcomes their loved ones for visits. The landscaping is meant to be calming, pleasant and inspiring. Clients of all financial and personal taste ranges should be able to find what they desire among the many structural designs available for housing the urns.
