Cremation with Funeral Service
Cremation services can include a
private or public viewing and/or funeral ceremony at our Funeral Home or your
place of worship prior to the cremation itself. Burial of the cremated remains, if
desired, may take place at a later date, and may be either public or private.
Ceremonial Casket
Many families considering cremation do
not realize the many services available. We offer memorial services or a
complete funeral with visitation, including use of our ceremonial
casket. This eliminates the high cost of purchasing a casket for only a
one or two hour visitation -- which means convenience and cost savings to
families preferring cremation.
Cremation with Memorial Service This choice includes immediate cremation but also offers the option of holding a memorial
service, which is held after the cremation.
Immediate Cremation
Immediate cremation includes no ceremonies or
rites. It may take place only after obtaining a signed death certificate from
the attending physician along with a signed authorization from the next of
kin, or authorized agent of the deceased. In the State of North Carolina, there
is a twenty-four hour waiting period after the time of death before cremation
can take place.
Options for Cremated Remains
Options for the cremated remains include burial at the cemetery, scattering of the cremated remains, placement in an urn to be kept at home,
or placed in a columbarium niche or other location. If you would like to
explore further options, we would be glad to provide you with the information
you desire to meet your needs.
| In order to provide better service and to insure our clients families a high degree of confidence in the cremation process, we have our own crematory on the premises operated by our professional staff. This means absolute assurance of dignity, privacy, and professionalism throughout the cremation process. |
