How should cremated remains of the body be handled?
Prior to cremation, arrangements should be made among the familiy of the deceased, the crematorium, the funeral director and the cemetery concerning the disposition of the cremated remains of the body. Most crematoriums will ship the cremated remains of the body via registered mail, or some other secure service, to the person who is responsible for them. Upon receipt, the cremated remains of the body should be treated with respect in the way they are handled, transported, cared for and in their final disposition.
