People often ask us, “What happens during the cremation process?” Without getting into too much detail, we outline the basics:
The entire process takes approximately three hours. Throughout the cremation process, a carefully controlled labeling system ensures correct identification. We provide a temporary urn with all of our direct cremations. A permanent urn can be purchased at the time of cremation or at a later date. Often cremated remains are left in the temporary urn for many years.
