Cremation Services

Traditional Cremation Service:
A traditional cremation includes a public or private viewing of the deceased. Following the viewing will be a service, which is typically held in a church or at our funeral home. After the service cremation will take place. This can be accommodated by the use of a cremation casket (a casket that is designed to be cremated) or a rental casket may be used. Following the viewing, service or ceremony, and eventual cremation, the cremated remains can be buried, properly scattered, or returned to the family for safe keeping. Urns are used to hold the cremated remains. Urns can be constructed out of materials such as semi-precious metals, ceramics, woods, salt-rock and many other varieties.

Erie County Cremation Service has the largest variety of urns to choose from in New York State.

Immediate Cremation Service:
An immediate cremation service can be arranged as an immediate disposition of the body, which is typically followed by a memorial service that takes place at a church or at our funeral home. A memorial service is one where the body is not present. Having some type of service is a key ingredient to a healthy recovery of a loss due to a death. A service is by no means a requirement but is a significant component of the healing process.

Erie County Cremation Service is honored to serve those who have chosen cremation as an end-of-life decision. Having served WNY as the longest operating cremation service, we know cremation and can help explain the cremation process well.
