Our Cremation Options

We are caring cremation experts who promise each family we serve the highest level of:

• Courteous, professional service. Our dedicated staff will take care of all details, including prompt filing of required permits and notifications. Accurate completion of these essential documents not only ensures their acceptance by local or provincial agencies; it guarantees your loved one's cremation will not be delayed.
   
• Respectful care of the deceased and timely completion of cremation process. Your loved one will be attended to by certified crematory operators; each of whom has been trained and licensed to provide both compassionate care for the deceased, and conscientious attention to detail throughout the cremation process.
   
• Safekeeping and prompt return of cremated remains. We know it's important for the families we serve to know their loved one will be coming home as soon as possible. That's why we promise to notify you as soon as their cremated remains become available, and safeguard their urn until the time you are ready to receive them or arrange for disposition.

We offer three cremation options; each can be modified to meet your needs:

1. Traditional cremation services. These are much like a traditional funeral. The body of the deceased, placed in a specially-selected cremation casket or a rental casket, is the focal point of the service. A visitation can take place prior to the funeral service and the cycle is completed with the cremation rather than a traditional burial. Once the cremation has occurred, the cremated remains and urn are returned to your family. You can then decide to scatter, bury, retain at home or store in safe keeping.
    
2. Visitation and a Memorial gathering after the cremation has taken place. This can occur at any time after the cremation process. The urn is usually on display during the visitation period and at the memorial service, these options are normally experienced at the funeral home but also can take place in any setting preferred by the family.
    
3. Direct cremation. This involves completion of all required paperwork and the transportation of the deceased from the hospital, home, nursing facility, or coroner's office to the Crematorium and safe return to the funeral home.
