Death may be a natural part of life, but losing someone you love is never easy. When a loved one passes away, it can feel like life has turned upside down, and in the midst of grief you’re faced with a long list of decisions to make while navigating an entirely new process. More and more families are choosing cremation for their loved ones and for themselves, but many people still don’t know the numerous options they have when it comes to honoring their loved one after cremation.
Just as with a traditional burial, there are many options for services, memorials, and ideas for what you can do with ashes to make this process as special and unique as your loved one and the life they led. Here are a few ideas:
There are also ways to honor your loved one before or during cremation:
How do you know which option would be right for your family? We strongly suggest having a conversation with your family members beforehand, about what your loved one might want after they have passed. If by chance, your family doesn’t have that prior assurance, our funeral directors can guide you through your options and help you decide what’s best for you and your family. There’s no “right” or “wrong” way to memorialize someone, it’s just important that you do. Our staff will honor your wishes to the best of our ability.
There are endless possibilities when it comes to honoring and celebrating your loved one after cremation. Our staff at Horan & McConaty is always here to guide you and help you make the decisions you’ll feel most comfortable with. Please visit our website or give us a call at any one of our seven Denver locations at 303.745.4418.
