Direct Cremation
Direct cremation is the simplest choice we offer. There is no viewing or ceremony beforehand, which keeps it straightforward and affordable. We handle everything from the first call onward, and your family is free to hold a gathering later, in your own way and in your own time.
What direct cremation includes
When you call us, we bring your loved one into our care and take it from there. We carry out the cremation with dignity and return the cremated remains to your family in the urn you choose.
Because there is no formal service, direct cremation is often the most practical option for families who want something simple, or who plan to hold a memorial later.
We take care of the paperwork
Cremation needs authorizations, permits, and death certificates. We prepare and file them for you, and we explain each one plainly so you know what you are signing.
Every choice comes with a written price. Call us at (219) 900-3995 for current pricing, or view our General Price List.
Bringing your loved one home
Many families keep the urn at home. Others scatter the ashes somewhere meaningful, or divide them among family members in keepsake urns.
There is no rush to decide. We will walk you through the options whenever you are ready.
