Extra Fees
Memorial Alternatives offers a different option than a traditional funeral home for the many families in today's society who would like to do things themselves. Their desire is to have a service provider, such as Memorial Alternatives, complete the cremation process and for them to plan their own services. Our intention is to provide dignified services at a reduced cost to those who wish to have cremation or burial with a minimum of ceremony.
The additional service offerings are normally provided when using a traditional funeral home, but are available through Memorial Alternatives for an additional cost.
