Cremation services in Worcester, MA do not have to be hard to plan. If a loved one has died and you want to take care of their needs, the main thing you have to do is choose a cremation package. All of these packages, no matter how basic they might be, will take care of your loved one’s needs. It can give you peace of mind to know that your loved one will get what they need through this package. And, you also have the freedom to add anything you want to that package. Here are some of the package options to consider.

Simple, Direct Cremation

Some families want to keep things simple or, you might not know what all you want for your loved one just yet. You can get a direct cremation package from the funeral home that will cover all of their needs and allow you the time you need to figure out what you want to do from here on out. The direct cremation package is going to include transportation for your loved one to the funeral home, care for them, and the cremation process. You also get a simple container for their cremated remains so you don’t even have to worry about choosing an urn if you don’t want to.

Full Cremation

The cremation process is the same with a full cremation, but the timing is different. Your loved one still gets transport to the funeral home, care, and the cremation process as well as a simple container. However, it also includes a funeral service before the cremation takes place. You can have a full funeral, visitation, and other such things, before the cremation service. This is a nice way to give your family the closure they might need as well as a chance to say a final goodbye. Then, the cremation happens and you can do what you want for a final resting place.

Cremation And Memorial Service

Instead of just the simple cremation, these packages also include a memorial service. If you know what you want for your loved one’s memorial, you can get a package that includes that so you don’t have to add anything else later, if you so choose. You can, for example, have a service at the funeral home and allow them to bring the details together for you so you don’t have to worry about that in the future. Memorial services can be whatever you want them to be and the funeral home is there to help you with the details whenever you need that kind of help.

If you ever choose cremation services for a loved one or for yourself as part of a pre-service plan, there are a lot of cremation options you may choose based on your need. Once you have a package in place, you don’t have to have anything else, but you can certainly add anything else you’d like either right away or in the future. The professionals at Callahan Fay Caswell Funeral Home are here to help you look through the packages and choose the most fitting option.
