Depending on your chosen arrangements, an at-need funeral may include an attended service, cremation or direct cremation.
Direct Cremation
A direct cremation is a cremation without a ceremony or mourners present. It’s the simplest and can be the most affordable option. The cremation takes place at a set time, and the ashes are returned to you afterwards. Many families choose this so they can hold a separate memorial in their own time and in their own way.
