WHY ARE MORE PEOPLE CHOOSING CREMATION?
The number of people who prefer cremation has constantly
increased. In Florida, the percentage surpasses 50%, and the numbers are steadily
growing in every state. Recent projections by the Cremation Association of North
America reflect a national average continuing to grow. In other developed nations
like Japan and the countries of Scandinavia, percentages reach as high as 95%.
Individual reasons for choosing cremation are as varied as the alternatives.
High cost of funerals, concerns for the environment, cold-weather constraints,
and ease of transportation to distant burial site are just a few. But most people
choose cremation for its simplicity.
American Heritage Cremation Society Cremation services include all required fees. Accountable, professional service. 800.756.2311.
WHAT IS CREMATION?
Cremation is a computerized thermal process of applied
heat and dehydration that reduces the human body to its basic elements. It is
accomplished in a special chamber called a retort, taking approximately one
to two hours.
The cremated remains (often referred to as "ashes") are called cremains
and usually weigh from four to nine pounds. They are enclosed in a sealed heavy
polyurethane bag and packaged in a container suitable for transport. Urns,
or permanent containers, can be selected and purchased separately if desired.
(Artistic designs and materials vary according to individual tastes and/or final
disposition requirements of the cemetery or columbarium).
In a religious context, the human body originating from and returning to the
basic elements of nature, "dust", is a Biblical
principle, expressed in Genesis
2:7 and 3:19,
Ecclesiastes
3:20 and 12:7,
Psalms
22:29 and 103:14,
1
Corinthians 15:47, and other passages. Natural decay and decomposition is
God's immutable law for returning the body to "dust."
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER CREMATION ?
BURIAL
in cemeteries,* urn gardens, at sea or at a National
Cemetery for veterans and their spouses.
INURNMENT in
a niche of a columbarium in cemeteries, churches and other locations. *
SCATTERING in a memorial garden of a cemetery or
church, at-sea, over private property, and a host of other personal options.
KEEP AT HOME in
a permanent urn. This is often done with consideration
for later transport and or burial.
"KEEPSAKES"
are miniature urns or pendants designed to contain a portion
of the cremains while the remainder is buried, scattered or inurned.
*If using a private cemetery, you may need to purchase a permanent
urn or vault, an opening & closing as well a marker. These are not requirements
of American Heritage Cremation Society.
