Cremation has become a popular method of
disposition in the last decade. It
is important for families choosing cremation to be informed of the
options available when planning a funeral service. Brosh
Chapel offers various options for funeral services for families
choosing cremation.
Visitation and Funeral Service: This option consists of a family
and public viewing of the body in a casket during a designated
time period. A funeral
service takes place the next day in a church of a religious affiliation
or at the chapel. At
the completion of the service, the body is taken to the crematory.
Private Visitation and Funeral Service: This cremation option is a visitation and funeral service
that is private for family and open to close friends invited by
the family. This visitation and funeral service is
not open for the public to attend.
Memorial Service: This option may include the cremated remains of
the deceased in an urn present at the visitation and memorial
service. The visitation is usually held at the
chapel during designated times. The
memorial service can be held in a church of religious affiliation
or at the chapel.
Direct Cremation involves the funeral directors taking the deceased
from the place of death to the crematory. For
a direct cremation there is no embalming, public viewing of the
body, or funeral service.
Disposition
of Cremated Remains
Families
may choose to do what they wish with cremated remains with respect
to the laws of the state. Some families choose to place the remains
in an urn to display in their home, in a grave with or without
an urn vault, or in a mausoleum. Families have also scattered
the remains in a significant area or place that was special to
the deceased.
Brosh Chapel strives to create personalized
memorial or funeral services. It is important that the visitation
and funeral/memorial service represents the life that was lived.
We invite families to assist us in creating services that are unique
and personal to the deceased. We encourage families to do this by bringing in photographs
and/or memorabilia of their family for the visitation. Families
are also given the option of creating a Personalized Video Tribute.
Videos are a beautiful memorial to remember the life of your
loved one. We provide memory boards and tables for
families to display special items for the visitation and/or funeral
service if permitted.
