Cremation

Traditional Service with Viewing and Cremation

More and more people are chosing cremation as their preferred type of disposition. They are also choosing to have a traditional viewing followed by a service. This service is the same as the Traditional Service with Viewing and Burial, except that after the service the deceased is cremated. Then at a later date the cremated remains, if desired, is buried or entombed. The viewing and/or service can either be public or private of a family's choosing.

Cremation, with or without a Service

In Direct Cremation, following death, the person is removed from the place of death and held until all legal requirements are meet by the funeral home, then cremated. In Pennsylvania, this time period is a minimum of 24 hours. There is no viewing. A memorial service can be held for family and friends at a later date, and can be held either at our facility, your place of worship, or an alternative site.
