Atlantic Funeral Home – Halifax provides convenient and flexible cremation services.
Every year, there is an increase in the number of Canadians who opt for cremation as their preferred choice. Many are finding the simpler and less costly alternative of cremation, a more attractive option. To make your farewell as meaningful and personal as a traditional burial, you can chose from the following options:
Choice of Resting Place
Urns can be buried or kept in either a columbarium, a mausoleum, an outdoor or indoor niche, or in a special urn garden.
Chapel or Graveside Service
If you would like to be cremated but prefer everything that is offered in a traditional burial, this is the ideal selection for you.
Viewings and Visitations
Even if you choose a cremation, visitations and viewings can still be added to your tribute. Many people find this an important part of the grieving process as it offers a final opportunity to say goodbye. As a part of your memorial plans, a reception for friends and family can be included.
