Contrary
to what most people believe, cremation does not limit
one's choices. The choice of cremation does not eliminate
a funeral service. A funeral service followed by cremation
need be no different than a funeral service followed
by ground burial. Following the funeral service and
cremation, the cremated remains are placed in an urn
before being committed to a final resting place. The
cremation urn may be buried, placed in an indoor or
outdoor cemetery columbarium, or scattered where permitted
by law.
Cremation does not limit, but in fact increases the
options available. The options for ceremonies prior
to or following the cremation can include the selection
of a casket or an urn, visitation with the body present
(or memorial visitation where the urn is the focal
point), a display of photographs or personal effects
and awards, the location of the funeral ceremony and
selection of music.
At Stevenson Wilson Funeral Home we understand the value
of our services and the importance of personalization,
which is why all of our services can be arranged to
meet a family's needs or wishes. Increasingly, we
find that individuals want to create a service that
reflects a more meaningful tribute.
