Cremation with Memorial Service
A memorial service brings family and friends together to celebrate a life, on a day that lets everyone attend.
The service can be held in our chapel, at your church, or somewhere that held special meaning for your loved one. It can be religious or not, formal or relaxed, with the urn present or not. We'll help you shape a gathering that truly reflects the person you're remembering.
