Wise Cremation Plan

Why Choose Cremation?

The decision to choose cremation as a means of disposition after death is a personal one that can be influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural or religious beliefs, environmental considerations, financial considerations, and personal preferences. Here are a few reasons why some people choose to be cremated:

  • Cost: Cremation can be a more affordable option than traditional burial because it eliminates the need for expensive caskets, burial plots, and other associated costs.
  • Flexibility: Most cremations are accompanied by a memorial service which can be held at any time after the cremation. There are many options for where to hold a memorial service. It is also possible to have a traditional funeral and visitation prior to the cremation. You even have various options for the cremated remains (“the ashes”). Ashes can be kept in an urn at home, entombed at a cemetery, or scattered in a location of your choosing. To learn more, check out our Choosing Cremation page.
  • Environmental Concerns: Cremation can be a more environmentally friendly option as it reduces the need for land usage and avoids the use of embalming chemicals that can be harmful to the environment.
  • Cultural or religious beliefs: Once forbidden by many religions, cremation is now acceptable to a growing number of religions.
