Memorializing your beloved deceased can be a distressing and emotional time. Here at Mountain View Funeral Home, we are committed to ensuring that everything goes as smoothly as possible with your upcoming Phoenix cremation service, including providing you with assistance in choosing the appropriate memorial urn to represent your loved one’s journey through life. The vast array of cremation urns means you are certain to find one that will reflect your personal style as well as the departed’s essence. There are several factors to keep in mind when making this important decision.
Urn Designs
Maybe your loved one had a special hobby or sport that they loved, or a professional team that held their heart. Military and veterans also have options for a fitting tribute that will reflect the ideals with which they lived their lives. Artistic urns are truly pieces of fine art that are generally commissioned long before passing. Any of these options will help personalize the journey specifically to your loved one.
Urn Size
Phoenix Cremation urns are available in a variety of sizes with the adult size being suitable for an individual weighing between 150 and 250 pounds. A good rule to follow is that you will need one cubic inch of urn space for each pound of body weight. Sharing ashes between several different relatives should be kept in mind when you are selecting an urn size.
Material Selections
Choosing an urn for your loved one gives you an opportunity to celebrate their life and personality for all time. Decorative, wood, ceramic, marble, metal, bronze, glass, and even biodegradable urns are available as a part of your Phoenix cremation. Very special companion urns are even available for couples who spent their entire life together and wish to remain together in eternity. Both single and double compartment companion urns are available depending on the wishes of the deceased.
Your Budget
Fortunately, our friendly and understanding staff at Mountain View Funeral Home are well-versed in helping you stay within your budgetary constraints. We understand that you do not want to feel limited during this difficult period, so our recommendations for your Phoenix Cremation service will be within your stated budget.
