Cremation
is chosen by just over fifty percent of families in South Florida as
the most common form of disposition. This percentage of cremations to
deaths in the United States will increase dramatically during the next
decade. Some
people are surprised to learn that cremation does not preclude a funeral
with all the traditional aspects of the ceremony. Visitation or viewing
with a funeral ceremony and church or memorial services are options to
be considered. Cremation
is selected for many reasons ranging from religious beliefs or ethnic
customs to cost. Most families electing cremation are believed to do so
simply because of personal preference. There
are a variety of options for the final disposition of cremated remains.
Urns or other containers may be placed in a niche at a columbarium, a
structure or room designed to contain cremated remains. Families may
elect to bury the urn in a family plot or cemetery. Or the urn may be
kept in another place of personal significance, such as the home.
Subject to some restrictions, cremated remains can be scattered by air,
over the ground or over water. 4058
