Choices for Cremation Memorials

    People choose cremation for a variety of reasons - philosophical, religious, and even
environmental. Others make the decision because cremation is simpler. If you are considering
cremation, it’s important to know and understand all of the choices available to you.

    Your choice for cremation was undoubtedly a personal one. But your choices don’t end there.
We found that most people that choose cremation do so because of the expanded choices to
reflect personalization and demoralization.

    Cremation Benches, Monument and upright Vautls
Cremation benches have space where cremated remains may be interred. The benches and
Monuments can be engraved with the individual names, dates and carvings to make the memorial
more personal. One of the biggest advantages to cremation benches and monuments is the
financial savings from not needing to purchase outer burial containers.

    Cremation flat grave markers
Cremated remains are placed into secured and inverted protective canisters that are attached to
the marker. Many different designs are available in both bronze and granite to personalize the
memorial. Interring the cremated remains into the flush marker provides financial savings of
unneeded purchases.

    Back to Nature Cremation Rocks
Cremation rocks have a special cavity cored into a granite boulder where cremated remains are
placed inside with a secured bronze memorial cover plate over top. This type of memorial has
seen a growing demand from those who want to return to nature. These rocks are placed within
tree groupings or plant and flower beds for a unique back to natural setting.

    Scattering
Families may choose to scatter the remains at the base of a tree in the Garden area or on an
existing Family lot. Scattering of remains offers many different scenarios and options for
demoralization, either through a memorial tree or a more traditional marker.

Mausoleum Niches, Brass & Glass Niches, Column barium Niches
Similar in design to that of a mausoleum, column barium niches offer secure protection, are clean
and dry, and the burial containers inurned do not come in contact with the earth. These niches
come in single or companion packages. The Mausoleum and Column barium Niches have granite
front covers with bronze plaques for demoralization.

Ground burial
Cremated remains may be interred in the ground just like a traditional casket burial. A cremation
burial vault is required to protect the urn and prevent ground sinking when ground burial is
chosen. The advantage in cremation burial is the cost savings differential in products and
services compared to a full size casket burial.

When the choice comes to cremation, there is limitless combination of options from which to
select from. These combinations can be tailored to ensure reflective personalization without
losing the proper respect and dignity that is expected.
