We are one of less than five funeral homes in the State of Kentucky that own and operate our own crematory.

Why are more and more people choosing cremation? There are many factors, including:

• personal or spiritual philosophy
• environmental philosophy
• simplicity or convenience
• economy
• greater acceptance now among many religions
• people are more likely to live away from their family roots (jobs, retirement, living, etc.)

Cremation is a centuries-old funeral rite which is again growing in preference. It's the rite of preference in Europe, Great Britain, Japan, Scandinavia, and other regions.

When choosing cremation as a part of your pre-planned arrangements, important considerations should be given to a few specific issues.

How are cremation services different from regular burial services? They're not. Services with cremation are the same as with earth burial, unless you prefer something different. It's your choice to make--your funeral, if you will.
