FAQ About Cremations in Milwaukee, WI

What do you know about cremation services? If you are just starting to learn about the industry, it’s vital to understand how cremation works and what types of services are available. The more you know about available options, the better prepared you will be to choose the right services for your family.

 

Our experienced team is happy to answer your questions, with the goal of helping you identify the services that are a good fit for your traditions and preferences. These are some of the most common questions we hear when talking to families about cremation services:

How quickly can a cremation be completed?

We understand that most families want to find closure in their grief, which is why they are focused on a tight timeline to finish the cremation services. Before we can move forward with cremation, a few essential steps need to be followed. For example, a medical examiner needs to examine the body, and the next-of-kin needs to be notified. Most often, a person can be cremated within 48 to 72 hours after death.

How much is the cost of cremation?

When the family budget is tight, cremation is a great solution to reduce the overall expenses of these services. A traditional burial can be expensive. On the other hand, cremation can cost a fraction of what you’d pay for a casket, burial plot, headstone, and other associated services.

Do I need to buy an urn?

We offer a variety of urn styles you can choose from our funeral home. Or, the remains can be placed in a temporary container if you are planning to scatter the ashes. It’s up to you to choose if you would like to invest in a memorial urn.

Can the body be embalmed before cremation?

Yes, you have the option to choose embalming services before cremation. The most common reason for embalming is that the family would like to have a viewing or visitation before scheduling the cremation service. Embalming is optional if you are planning a direct cremation.

What does direct cremation include?

If you choose a direct cremation package, then it means that our team will assist with the basic services that are required. Often, direct cremation includes transportation, cremation services, and applicable paperwork. We do not help with any other services, such as a memorial or a funeral. Direct cremation is often the most cost-effective solution to save money.

Can we plan a funeral before/after the cremation?

Yes, you always have the opportunity to plan a funeral or memorial service. One option is to hold a traditional funeral before the event. We can arrange a casket rental if desired. The other option is to complete the cremation, then have a memorial or celebration of life for family and friends to attend.

Can cremated ashes be placed in a cemetery?

Just because you choose cremation doesn’t mean that your loved one can’t be laid to rest in a local cemetery. Sometimes families prefer cremation for traditional or cultural reasons. But they want to have a location to visit with a headstone. If you choose cremation and want to bury the ashes, then you can pick a burial urn to place in the burial plot of your choice.

What is involved in cremation preplanning?

When someone knows that they prefer cremation instead of regular burial services, it can help talk to a funeral home about preplanning services for cremations in Milwaukee, WI. We will discuss available services and finalize the plan in advance. This preplanning approach can happen at any time. It gives you comfort in knowing that your wishes are known when you are gone.

 

It’s normal to have a lot of questions about cremation and funeral planning. When these questions arise, simply reach out to our team to talk to an industry expert. We’ll guide your choices and offer information about how you can plan the right services for your loved one.
