When memorializing your loved ones, the first step is to familiarize yourself with the memorial choices that are available. Compared to traditional burials, cremation services provide a wider variety of memorial options. Opting for cremation allows the family to be creative and choose a meaningful way to honor the departed.

Porto Funeral Homes, a funeral home serving East Haven and West Haven, CT, offers the following memorialization options for cremated remains:

  • Burial In Columbarium Niches: The beauty of using cremation services is that it saves land space and allows you to keep the remains in an above-ground cremation columbarium that you can visit every once in a while.
  • Scattering The Remains: If you’re wondering what to do with your loved one’s cremated remains, why not scatter the ashes in a place that’s special to them? Many people love the idea of scattering the ashes at sea, over other bodies of water, on land, or tossing them into the wind.
