At Remembrance Funerals, we often encounter surprising misconceptions about funerals and the arrangements involved. Our dedicated team are always available to discuss any questions or concerns you may have regarding our services.

Here are some prevalent misconceptions we frequently hear:

1. Funerals Are Extremely Expensive: Many people believe that funerals come with exorbitant costs. We encourage you to speak with us about your wishes. We can provide services tailored to your budget and suggest options that incorporate essential elements without the hefty price tag.
2. Family Must View the Deceased: Viewing is entirely a personal choice and not mandatory. Some individuals find solace and closure in seeing their loved one, while others may find it too distressing. It’s important to honour each person’s decision.
3. Embalming Is Required: While embalming can help preserve the deceased during our care, it is not compulsory. We assess each situation individually and provide guidance based on specific circumstances.
4. Are You Sure the Ashes Are Correct?: Rest assured, cremations occur in a single cremator that is cleared after each use. This process guarantees that the remains collected from the crematorium belong to your loved one. If you have any concerns, crematoriums are happy to provide information and even offer tours to reassure families.

For any additional questions or advice, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’re here to help during this difficult time.
