A home to honor the memory of your loved one
Memorials for cremated remains
Father: We all have a lot to be thankful for. We enjoy
cherished memories of the past.
I know no one likes to talk about this, but we need to talk
about our end of life funeral arrangements.
We need to be prepared and be able to make sensible
decisions when our time comes.
Cremation and placement in a Columbarium niche is the
way your mother and I wish to keep these memories
alive.
Your mother and I recently toured the historic U.S.
Columbarium at Fresh Pond Crematory. You should see
it. Grand Terazzo
floors and beautiful
niches adorned with
Tiffany style stained
glass.
It’s magnificent. We
were so impressed
that we made our pre-arrangements so that you don’t
have to during your time of grief.
Daughter: What exactly is a columbarium?
Father: It’s a building where cremated remains are
memorialized with honor.
Daughter: How is it different from a cemetery?
Father: Well, to begin with, visiting the glass front niche
and viewing the beautiful urns has
a more personal and close feeling.
Daughter: Father, I can certainly
appreciate that feeling.
Father: Besides, being indoors &
temperature controlled and all, it’s
perfect for us.
You can visit anytime, no matter
the weather.
