Cremation is an increasingly common choice for many families regarding end-of-life services. You can choose from several cremation services with their own upsides and downsides. When selecting the right cremation service for your family, it's crucial to understand what each of them provides.
1. Traditional Cremation
A traditional cremation involves the body's cremation followed by the scattering of the ashes. The body is reduced to ashes by using heat, fire, and evaporation.
Cremation may not be the end of your loved one's journey. You'll be presented with a small container containing cremated ashes, which should weigh (on average for an adult) around five pounds. What happens to these remains is up to you, but there are many cremation services to assist you with the next stage of your loved one's journey.
Keep
You could decide to keep your loved one's ashes at home, so they'll always be with you.
