Understanding the Traditional Burial Option

Understanding the Cremation Option
Cremation is a popular alternative to traditional burial. Sometimes a person’s personal preference or spiritual beliefs lead them to prefer this option. Since it isn’t like a traditional burial, many people are uncertain about how to make these kinds of arrangements.
Sonoma Funeral Home specializes in providing seamless, affordable cremation services. Whether the ashes are to be scattered in a special ceremony or kept, we can help coordinate this process and the arrangements associated with it.
BRONZE CREMORIALS
Bronze Cremorials provide families the opportunity to combine a ground burial and cremation. The individually selected urn is securely placed directly into the Bronze Cremorial.
CREMATION BENCHES
Cremation benches are made of granite or marble and provide a permanent memorial to your loved one. An outdoor environment provides the ideal setting to reflect upon the life of a friend or loved one. A cremation bench would be an ideal place to survey the beauty of the surroundings and reminisce on a life well lived.
GLASS-FRONT NICHES
Glass-Front Niches are a fairly new and tastefully classy option for those who choose to place cremains in a niche. It allows for a special place to go while keeping the unique individuality of the choice of urn viewable. Additionally, some families choose to place meaningful personal effects in these niches providing yet another way of keeping special memories alive.
