Basics To Know When Picking 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 key element that sets them apart from most cemeteries is the peaceful and welcoming landscaping for which they are known. They are filled with expansive lawns, flower beds, beautiful trees, walking paths, ponds and attractive structures. All of these aspects combine to create a space that is pleasant to visit for people of all ages.
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.
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.
