Funeral Arrangements
When a loved one passes, the grieving family is forced
to make immediate
funeral arrangements which
can place those who are left behind under great emotional
duress and financial strain. Every family is unique,
and
funeral arrangements are made depending
on many factors such as; cost, personal preference,
and religious or cultural traditions.
We, at Funeral & Cremation Emporium ensure that your
loved one's wishes will be carried out in an appropriate
and compassionate fashion. Let us offer you a helping
hand in making these difficult
funeral arrangements.
Whatever path is taken in life, however long the journey,
the adventure is filled with an infinite amount of admirable
moments. Moments throughout one's life involves laughter,
joy, sorrow and uncertainty. Please allow our courteous
and caring staff to assist you in making
funeral
arrangements that will celebrate your loved one's
lifetime achievements and beloved memories with an unforgettable
ceremony.
There are many types of
funeral arrangements
that must be made promptly. A few questions you may
ask yourself are:
"Should I have my loved one buried or cremated?"
"What type of ceremony should I plan for my loved
one?"
"Where will the ceremony take place"
"Where should my loved one's final resting place
be?"
There are a several types of
funeral arrangements
that can be selected for your loved one.
You may opt to plan:
- Traditional burial funeral arrangements:
Usually includes a viewing or visitation and
formal funeral service, use of a hearse for
transportation to the cemetery for
burial or entombment
of the mortal remains or cremated remains of
your loved one.
- Direct burial funeral arrangements:
A visitation is not held, therefore embalming
is not required. The earth burial takes place
shortly after death has occurred. A memorial
gathering may be held at the graveside or at
a later date.
- Direct cremation funeral arrangements:
Cremation takes
place without embalming. Embalming is not a
requirement and no viewing or visitation is
held. A memorial gathering may be held, with
or without the cremated remains present. The
cremains may be kept at a residence, buried
or placed in a plot or niche at a cemetery,
or scattered in a favorite place on land or
at sea. These factors will assist you in determining
whether the funeral arrangements will
be elaborate or simple, public or private, religious
or secular. These decisions will also determine
the funeral cost
and types of goods and services you will need
and the location of the final resting place.
When making
funeral arrangements for your loved
one you may opt to add a personal touch to the service
or gathering. Families find that personalizing the gathering
will make the experience more comforting for everyone
attending. Whichever service you decide is suitable
for your loved one, personalizing the ceremony is an
excellent way of bringing family and friends closer
during this complex time.
Some suggestions when planning your funeral
arrangements include:
- Incorporate memorabilia into the
funeral arrangements: An heirloom passed
from generation to generation, charm of good
luck, meaningful award, or any items that hold
sentimental value can conjure up stories and
memories to allow family and friends to reminisce,
making the service much more personal.
- Share family portraits:
Add a visual element to the service by decorating
the facility with photos of your loved one sharing
joyous times with friends and family.
- Considering a theme: When
making your funeral arrangements you
may want to consider having a common theme throughout
the service. Incorporate photos, memorabilia
and personal stories that revolve around your
chosen theme. This is perfect for those who
gave a lot to the community or lived out a lifelong
dream.
- Strike up a tune: Music
invokes some strong feelings. Selecting a tune
or song that's meant so much to the life of
your loved one is a beautiful way of saying
a lot without speaking at all.
