Frequently Asked Questions
Can we still have a service with cremation?
Absolutely. Many families opt for a memorial service after cremation, which can include visitation, personalized tributes, and gatherings with family and friends.
What is the most affordable funeral service?
Direct cremation is the most affordable end-of-life service. In direct cremation, the body is immediately transported from the place of death to the cremation center.
Is it illegal to spread ashes in Alabama?
Generally speaking, it’s not illegal to spread ashes in Alabama on your own private property. However, it’s recommended to check with local city or county offices to determine if local regulations apply when spreading at a public park. You should contact the appropriate agency for national parks or other federal properties to inquire about their policies and any necessary permits. The federal Clean Water Act requires that cremated remains be scattered at least three nautical miles from shore.
