Many people are choosing cremation in Penticton for their deceased loved one and it’s not hard to understand why. Cremation in Penticton offers a more flexible option when it comes to the disposition of the remains. The ashes can be scattered, buried, or kept in a columbarium. Family members can also choose to keep the remains in their homes.

Not all funeral homes offer cremation services, which is why it’s important to look for funeral homes like Everden Rust with this option. It is much cheaper compared to going to a third-party crematorium.

You will also choose the urn for your loved one. Here are the things that you need to know about this process:

1. You can use anything.

Most funeral homes with crematoriums also sell urns. It might be included in the package already, so it’s best to ask the funeral director what is included in the package that you can get. However, you don’t have to buy it directly from them. You can use virtually anything as long as it will hold the ashes.

2. Check the size.

The amount of ashes you will get depends on the size of the deceased. You can buy the urn after you have received the ashes so you can determine the best size to get.

3. Consider what you are going to do with the ashes.

If you will eventually scatter the ashes and you are on a budget now, you can go with a container that you already have at home or one that you made yourself. You can personalize it to suit your needs. If you are going to display it at a columbarium, choose something that is more suitable for displaying and can last for a long time. Something more sophisticated would be a better way to hold the ashes of your loved one.

4. Determine the various materials used for urns.

Which material will you go for? You can go with ceramic urns, which are classier and would work for displaying the urn. You can also opt for eco-friendly options like wood. Today, you can find wood urns that also have seeds embedded. The seeds can grow once you bury the urn with the ashes.

Choosing an urn after cremation in Penticton should be a personal process. Choose an urn that will match the personality of your deceased loved one. Is he or she an outgoing type of person? Perhaps a wood type of run would be a better fit. Everden Rust can help you in choosing the right urn for your loved one.
