Making decisions for a loved one who has passed away can be very hard. If you’ve ever had to do it, you know. And perhaps, if you’ve been in that position or have at least imagined it, you don’t want your family to have to go through that for you. So you think about creating your own final service plan. That means you have to decide between traditional services and cremation services in Sun City, AZ. The decision is completely up to you and, keep in mind, there’s no real right or wrong answer. Whatever you do is completely honorable and respectful. But these few thoughts might have you talking yourself into cremation:
If You Choose Cremation, You Can Afford To Pay Now
One of the reasons people choose to plan their own services in advance is so they can relieve their family members of burdens in the future. One such burden is the cost burden. Funerals can be expensive, but when you plan now, you have the option of paying now. You may not be able to afford a full funeral yourself, but you can likely swing paying for your own cremation. That’s just one great reason to choose cremation. Paying upfront saves you money and you are more likely going to be able to afford cremation now over a traditional burial.
Choosing Cremation Means You Can Have Any Kind Of Service You Want
Traditional funerals are very ceremonial and that can be comforting to many people. But if that doesn’t feel right to you, you might want to choose cremation instead. With that method, you can plan any kind of service you want, whether it’s at a funeral home, in a park, or even in a family home. You can have a celebration of life, a memorial service, an ash scatter, or anything else you want.
You Can Have A Unique Resting Place With Cremation
While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with burial, it’s not right for everyone. If you would rather be scattered into the ocean, planted with a tree, or kept in a family home, you can request that if you go with cremation. Cremation opens a world of options, including unique resting places that are only available when you go with this disposition method.
You shouldn’t feel like you have to talk yourself into one method over the other. Just run some ideas through your mind and see what feels the best to you.
