| 3rd Consideration:
The third decision in planning a cremation is to choose the mode of final disposition. Upon the completion of the cremation process, our crematory places the cremated remains in a sealed bag within a temporary plastic container. For final disposition, families choose one of our five (5) options available.
1. Ground Burial
Traditional ground burial is available for cremated remains. Most families choose to have a graveside service when choosing ground burial.
2. Entombment
Cremated remains that are placed above ground in a cemetery mausoleum are typically kept in a specially designated permanent location called a niche. Most families choose to have a service in a mausoleum prior to the entombment of cremated remains.
3. Scattering
Cremated remains may also be scattered in our designated Nature Garden at Grandview Cemetery.
4. Keepsake Urn
Cremated remains may be taken home in a meaningful keepsake urn.
5. Combination Options
Some families choose a combination of disposition options, such as scattering a portion of the cremated remains and keeping a portion of the cremated remains in an urn to display at home. Because there are a variety of different options available, we work with each family to help them choose the best combination option for them.
