Cremation can be performed with or without a funeral service. In this form of funeral, the deceased is cremated in a casket/cremation container at a crematorium. The cremains are then returned to the funeral home for the family to then take possession.
Note: Cremation is only possible if the deceased gave written consent to cremation while he or she was still alive. If the deceased has not left a will indicating the type of funeral desired, a cremation can also be arranged by the next of kin.
