Cremation provides an alternative to traditional services but still allows the option of visitation and religious services.  You still have all the choices as a traditional service.  The only difference is a cremation takes place instead of an earth burial.  You have a few options for the ashes of human remains which are buried at a cemetery of your choice, placement in an urn to be kept at home or you may scatter them at sea.

Direct Cremation

This is the simplest form of disposition and includes no ceremonies or visitation.  It usually takes place after all legal paperwork is obtained and properly filed along with the completion of authorization from the next of kin.
