Cremation services are a common alternative to traditional funeral and burial services. These are less expensive than a casket funeral/burial service, so they can be a viable option for those who worry about traditional funeral costs. Some simply have the wish to be cremated over being buried, which is perfectly acceptable. A cremation also gives loved ones the ability to cherish their loved one’s memory in an urn.
What some may not know is that cremations can be just as commemorative to the deceased’s memory as a traditional funeral. Even with cremations, there is an option to host a special service or remembrance ceremony, allowing loved ones to share their final words and goodbyes just as they would at a funeral.
