Basic Details 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.
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.
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.
It is easy to accommodate cremated individuals who choose to be interred in the ground. One of the many ways is to place the container of ashes into a plot and use a bronze plaque laying flat upon the ground to notate the one takes residency within. These marker might also be affixed to an upright structures such as a plinth or bench.
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.
