What costs are involved with cremation?
You’ll need to consider the cost of the cremation itself, plus costs for a memorial service if you choose to have one. You’ll also need a container for the cremated remains, which can be as simple as a basic box or as elaborate as a bronze, stainless steel or marble urn. We suggest considering a permanent memorial, even if you choose to scatter your cremated remains. Lakewood offers several options, including in-ground burial outdoors, the entombment of an urn inside or outdoors, or a plaque on our Tree of Remembrance in the mausoleum.
