About Us

Your loved one is delivered from the hospital or morgue to our in-house crematorium. The body is then cremated. No preparation is done. The remains are then delivered to the family. A memorial service or burial then be arranged. The advantage of direct cremation is that you avoid the costs associated with the body preparations.

Following cremation, we will place the cremated remains into a meaningful urn of your choosing. Afterwards, the urn is buried or placed in an above ground niche. 

Your loved one is delivered from a hospital or morgue to the funeral home. The body then undergoes preparation for a viewing at a memorial service. After the service, the body is cremated in our in-house crematorium. The family will later receive the cremated remains.
