Cremation dates back to ancient times and is a common form of final disposition among a great many people. If you are considering cremation, you need to know about the many options available to you through Spear Mulqueeny Funeral Homes. When making cremation arrangements, keep in mind, you have unlimited options for memorialization. The most important thing is to create a farewell event that is meaningful and satisfying to you and others who will participate. Remember, there is no "standard" cremation arrangement. We have the experience to assist you in developing a customized cremation service that is "just right" for you and your family.

Many people believe that choosing cremation means limiting your options. This is not the case. There are many services and merchandise options available to you. Most families choose to hold services, which help the bereaved cope with the loss of a loved one. Services or ceremonies can precede or follow the actual cremation. Prior to cremation, there may be a gathering, which may be either public or private, with an open or closed casket. When the service follows the cremation, a receptacle (or urn) containing the cremated remains may take a place of prominence.

Following the ceremony, the final disposition of the cremated remains takes place. Cremation offers families choices for final disposition of the cremated remains, and with cremation, you have the opportunity to select from a wide array of caskets, urns and keepsake memorials.

According to the National Funeral Directors Association, the average cost of an adult funeral is in excess of $5,000.

Funeral arrangements are personal and special for each family. Simply let us know of your personal preferences and wishes regarding the funeral service by visiting with us or by completing our online pre-arrangements form.

At the time of an actual funeral, most decisions need to be made within a few hours. But by preplanning the funeral, you can take your time to make the decisions in an unhurried and thoughtful way. You will relieve your family of the burden and it offers you the opportunity to let your family know your wishes.

For the same reasons you write a will, make retirement plans, or buy life insurance, people feel that it is a good idea to plan for the future and make their funeral plans. You can select the type of service you would like and how much you would like to spend. By paying for the service ahead of time, you can be assured the funds will be there at the time of the funeral.

We encourage you to discuss with your family the decisions that are important to you. Then, share those decisions with us at Spear-Mulqueeny Funeral Home.
