The reasons people prefer cremation over traditional burial are varied. For some, it seems more environmentally sound. For others, it is a more spiritual decision. Still others are not sure why they prefer cremation, but know that they would like to have the option available to them.

Families choosing cremation may still have a funeral service, memorial service and a permanent place for loved ones to visit for years to come. Our funeral directors will work with you and your family to make sure the service has as many or as few of the elements of a traditional burial you desire.

For disposition, families may choose:

• permanent possession - family or friend retains urn as cherished possession
• scattering - scattering of cremated remains over a special place such as a lake, ocean or park
• burial/above ground entombment - placing of urn in a mausoleum, columbarium niche or grave

If you have questions about cremation, feel free to call one of Stygar's licensed funeral directors.
