When it comes to laying a loved one to rest, more and more families are exploring the path of “cremation with a memorial service”. And being one of the leading cremation services in Mohnton, PA, we are skilled in answering all questions and walking our clients through the process. We are aware that every family has unique wishes and expectations and it’s our solemn responsibility to ensure that their wishes are honoured with compassion and respect.
Cremation is a process that transforms the remains of a loved one into ashes. Most people opt for cremation due to its simplicity, affordability, and flexibility. It also provides an array of options for memorializing the deceased, thus, making it easier for families to choose what suits them best.
A memorial service is a ceremony that honors the life of the departed loved one, but without the body present. The ceremony can be held at a later date, sometimes weeks or even months after the cremation. This can offer friends and family more time to plan travel to the service, and can often ease some of the strain immediately following a passing.
We understand the importance of honoring the cultural and religious customs of each family. Many religions and cultural traditions have specific rites to be done during cremation. Whether a family requires a particular ritual during the cremation process or specific procedures for the memorial service, we are prepared to accommodate these according to the family’s preferences.
While directly overseeing the cremation process, we ensure that everything is being done as per protocols, complying with our clients’ wishes and adhering to the highest professional standards. Our well-built cremation facilities engage modern technology to ensure the highest respect for the remains and the security of the process.
The memorial service can be personalized in a way that truly embodies the life and legacy of the deceased. We can assist in arranging various personal elements like special music, a display of personal belongings or photos, or having friends and family share cherished stories or readings.
After the cremation, we help our clients choose a suitable resting place for the cremated remains. Resting places can range from a niche in a columbarium, buried in a cemetery, or in some cases, kept at a family home in a decorative urn.
While we do not condone the scattering of ashes, there are other alternatives for the final disposition of cremated remains. Families can choose to keep the ashes in a memorial urn or inter them in a burial plot or mausoleum niche. We provide a variety of options to cater to the diverse needs of our clients.
