Cremation Services Available for Aurora Families
Families in Aurora reach out to us at every stage, some in the first hours after a loss, others planning quietly in advance. Whatever brought you here, the cremation options below are available to Aurora families exactly as they are throughout the Denver metro area, and we can also help with traditional funeral services.
Direct Cremation
A simple, dignified option in which cremation takes place without a formal service beforehand. Many families hold a memorial gathering later, at a time and place that feels right, or choose to keep remembrance private.
Cremation with Memorial Service
Cremation paired with a meaningful memorial gathering, held at a time and location that suits your family, bringing together the stories, music, and shared comfort of a traditional farewell without a tight timeline.
Cremation with Funeral Service
A full funeral service held before cremation, offering the structure and ceremony of a traditional service while still providing the flexibility cremation allows for final resting choices.
Witness Cremation & Graveside Services
For families who wish to be present, we offer a private, respectful witness cremation setting, as well as graveside committal services for families who choose burial of cremated remains.
Personalization & Pre-Planning
Every service can be personalized with tributes, music, visitations, eulogies, and family gatherings, and we offer pre-planning and grief support so your family's wishes are documented and your loved ones are supported before and after the service.
