The Importance of Our On-Site Crematory

Having our own crematory means that your loved one never leaves our care. When embalming is not selected, we place them in our refrigerated holding area, allowing family members—especially those who traveled from afar—an opportunity for farewell and closure before the cremation. We also accommodate large groups wishing to witness the cremation process, respecting the cultural significance it may hold for your loved ones.
