• Today, all Christian denominations, including the Roman Catholic Church, allow cremation. Orthodox Judaism and Islam forbid cremation.

• Services are often held before cremation. The body is often placed in a
  casket for funeral services. Cremation is, in most cases, done the same
  day the service is held, and the body remains in the casket.

• Combustible materials are used in the manufacture of caskets used
  for cremation.

• Great care is taken to ensure that the body is tracked through the entire cremation process: A identifying metal disk remains with the body at all
  times. The disk Regulations require that nothing must be removed from the casket once it has been received in the chapel, church or funeral home. Complete security ensures that ashes are always placed correctly in
  the appropriate urn.

• Caskets/bodies not in caskets are cremated one at a time except in the
  case of the deceased’s family members requesting a mother and baby,
  or twin children, be cremated together.

• With improved technology, it takes approximately 2-2 1/2 hours to cremate an adult body, depending on body weight.

• The ashes of a cremated body are given to the family for scattering. Cremation urns come in a vast selection of materials, shapes & sizes.
