Frequently Asked Questions about Cremation
What is Cremation?
During cremation, a dead body is burned and vaporized at high
temperatures, leaving only ashes. The ashes are specifically from the
destruction of bone. Other tissues are vaporized.
How can I tell if I am getting a reputable firm to
handle the cremation?
There are a number of ways to ensure you choose a reputable
firm for cremation. Check the qualifications of the staff, learn about the
procedures that ensure proper running of the crematorium and proper
identification of the deceased, and assess the candid and direct disclosure of
costs.
