A representative from Dignity Memorial will explain the cremation process, including the care for and preparation of the body (which varies depending on religious requirements and type of service chosen), planning a unique funeral or memorial service that reflects the individual, choosing a burial option, varying cremation costs and cremation memorial options including urns and keepsake jewelry.
