HW 51

Cremation is a form of burial that is starting to become more and more popular, its cheaper and takes up less space. There are multiple things that you can do with the ashes once the body is cremated. The average cost of a cremation is 1,800 which is way cheaper than the 12,000 dollar price check on a burial.

"A crematory is not likely to allow you to wittnes the actual cremation, out of respect for the dead and because few modern cremation units boast windows looking into the retort."- pg 67

"You pay less if you make arrangements with the crematory directly, instead of working through a funeral home. Through special arrangements with local lcrematories or funeral homes, funeral cosumer groups can soemtimes offer members no-frills cremations at rates as low as $500.00." - pg 67

"Most states allow you to remove remains from the place of death adn deliver it to the crematory yourself, but youll generally need to gain a number of documents including a death certificate from the attending physician."- pg 68
