Kelly Funeral Home - Somerset Chapel can provide convenient and flexible cremation services.
Cremation is on the rise in Canada, as many prefer the simpler and sometimes less expensive option over traditional burial. Cremation is no less dignified and respectful than burial, and provides an array of choices to honour and memorialize your loved one.
Final Resting Place Options
Depending on your preferences, the urn can be buried, or placed in an indoor/outdoor niche, mausoleum, columbarium, or special urn garden.
Chapel or Graveside Service
You still may want to pay your final respects to your loved one with a chapel or a graveside service just like you would during a traditional funeral.
Public Viewings and Visitations
Viewings and visitations are an important part of the grieving process for many. We will help plan and host a respectful viewing before cremation, as well as a reception or gathering afterwards, providing a time for loved ones to say their final goodbyes.
Urns and Keepsakes
A wide selection of quality cremation urns are available. As well, we offer lovely cremations mementos, including jewelry, keepsake urns and memorial record packages, to help you remember and cherish your loved one’s memory.
The Benefits of Planning Ahead
- Savings: Planning early offers cost savings of up to thousands of dollars.
- Reduce the burden on your family: Planning your final arrangements ahead of time reduces the responsibilities on your family at their time of distress.
- Peace of mind: Gain comfort in knowing your plans are ready.
While it’s natural to think of cremation as the only decision to make, it’s really the first of many choices and details to consider. Similar to a traditional service, cremation allows for visitations, as well as funeral or memorial gatherings to celebrate a life well lived. Learn more in our video about cremation.
