Rive
rwood Family Funeral Services also offers cremation as an alternative to traditional burial. Many families choose cremation for its simplicity, flexibility, or personal preference, but it is important to know that this choice does not limit the opportunity to gather, honor, and remember your loved one.
Families may still choose to have a full visitation and funeral or memorial service prior to cremation, allowing friends and loved ones time to come together for support and remembrance. A casket can be purchased or rented for these services, depending on your preferences. Riverwood Family Funeral Services also offers a selection of urns in a variety of styles to reflect the life and personality of your loved one.
After cremation, families have several options for final placement. Burial spaces are available in Riverwood Memorial Park for those who prefer a permanent resting place. Our memorial scatter garden provides a peaceful setting for those who choose to have their loved one’s cremains returned to the earth in a meaningful way. Some families may also choose to keep the urn at home or place it in a niche or other memorial location.
Every family’s wishes are unique, and our staff is here to help guide you through the available options with care and understanding. We are committed to helping you create a service that honors your loved one in a way that is both meaningful and personal.
Please contact a member of our staff to discuss cremation options or to learn more about how we can assist you during this time.
