What can we do with the cremated remains?
As I mentioned earlier, there is versatility in what you can do with cremated remains. You can inter a cremation urn in a cemetery plot or niche, keep an urn at home, scatter the remains or create a cremation artifact such as a cremation diamond, glass paperweight, bird bath, or memorial reef ball.
The deceased had no life insurance – is there any help with cremation costs?
Sadly, there is little financial aid that supports those families that find themselves struggling with funeral costs. Most counties have a budget for indigent funerals, but this is generally for those who truly are indigent.
Some counties do have limited funds to help low-income families with cremation costs, but this can vary county by county. In these cases, the most basic funeral services will often be supported, with limited control over what happens. An affordable direct cremation from DFS Memorials can be arranged for $1,095 in Southwest Florida.
I have been researching and writing about the death care industry for the past fifteen years. End-of-life services and experiences are topics most people avoid thinking about until they must face them. My work provides comprehensive and independent resources for families, explaining the workings of the funeral industry, the laws governing funeral practices, and the death care trends that impact consumers. With a BA in Cultural Studies, I bring a unique perspective to analyzing cultural death care rituals, complemented by a career background in Business Management. The death care industry is undergoing significant changes, which I find fascinating. The shift towards cremation services and the emergence of sustainable alternatives like aquamation and human composting are of particular interest. I am also intrigued by how technology is reshaping the funeral planning process and experience. I write for US Funerals Online and DFS Memorials LLC, and contribute to various forums and publications within the death care industry.
