Philadelphia, United States – October 5, 2017 /PressCable/ —

The funeral directors of Ervina White Beauford Funeral Service understand that making the decision to cremate a loved one can be a difficult one for families. They are available around the clock to assist the families in Philadelphia, PA with such choices, providing vital information, guidance and support. Although burial is still the preferred means of final disposition, cremation has become increasingly popular in the United States in recent years. Due to the Catholic Church lifting its ban on the practice in 1963 and allowing cremated remains to be present at funeral masses in 1997, many more people have chosen this method of caring for physical remains. Please learn more about cremation and other final arrangements offered by Ervina White Beauford Funeral Service by visiting http://www.ewbfunerals.com/services.

Cremation is the process of reducing a body to ashes, gases and mineral fragments, most often through the application of intense heat. Perhaps the loved one informed his or her family that was the manner in which they wanted their physical remains dealt with. Cremation does not reduce the number of ways that a family can celebrate the life of the deceased; if anything, it provides them with even more options, especially in terms of finding a final resting place for their departed. Casketed remains can be either interred in the earth or entombed in an above ground mausoleum. With cremains, families can scatter them in the air, on land or at sea, bury them, keep them at home, place them in a columbarium niche, incorporate a portion of them into keepsake jewelry or solid glass sculpture, have them converted into a certified diamond, put them into fireworks, add them to an artificial underwater reef, have them sent into space, divide them into mini urns to be shared among family members and many other options.

In addition, a family can arrange for a memorial gathering to take place after the cremation process at any time and in the location of their choice. This allows them much more time to plan the event, the ability to better accommodate the schedules of their guests and the flexibility to choose a more unique setting for the event. Attendees visiting from further distances have the opportunity to find more affordable travel and hotel arrangements. Unlike at a funeral service, the casketed remains are not present. At memorial ceremonies, families often display the inurned remains of the loved one.
