Traditional Flame Cremation: Timeless & Simple

A direct flame cremation is a service provided without a formal viewing or ceremony with the body present. You may opt to select that service as an add on if you so desire.


The cremation process begins with us taking care to transport the body as little distance as possible in order to reduce the use of fossil fuels. Once the body it is in our care, they stay there until cremation is performed on site at our crematory.


Next, we remove all medical and end-of-life plastics from the body as we prepare it for cremation. This keeps the chemicals they would have released during the burning process out of the atmosphere. 


This translates into decreased environmental and human impact. For those wanting to further reduce their impact, an increasing number of people are choosing Water Cremation is an alternative to burial and flame-based cremation services.
