BURIAL
PLANS
The
earth represents life and so it is fitting that in death the earth
becomes a final resting place. Services never considered before
are now becoming common, such as, public visitation and private
burial, calling hours prior to the ceremony on the same day, a funeral
mass with many members of the family or associates directly participating
in the service and burial one day with calling hours or public reception
at the funeral home the following day without the body being present.
The
plans shown are by no means the only one's available, but are currently
the most popular plans for burial. These plans are complete, including
services and merchandise. All Simplicity Burial Plans listed include:
Local Transportation from Place of Death through to Cemetery, Planning
and Coordination, Assistance in Placing and Preparing Newspaper
Obituaries, Securing Necessary Authorizations, Necessary Services
of Staff, Shelter of the Deceased and Selected Casket.

CREMATION
PLANS
Cremation
is becoming more popular in New England, and why not cremation is
popular throughout the world. The advantages are many. Ashes can
be buried in any cemetery lot anywhere in the country or world where
a relative is buried, even if the lot is already full and/or without
using an existing empty grave. Ashes can be transported anywhere
in the world at minimum cost. Ashes can be scattered on or near
a spot of significant remembrance. Evening funeral services can
be held with the ashes buried or scattered at a later time. Today
many opportunities exist for meaningful services for the benefit
of family and friends, both before and after cremation takes place.
The
plans shown are by no means the only one's available, but are currently
the most popular plans for cremation. These plans are complete,
including all services, merchandise, authorizations and obituaries.

from Place of Death through to Cemetery, Planning and Coordination,
