What is a Simplified Cremation?
Common funeral services often include a range of services that are designed to maintain cultural or religious traditions. For example, many families like to have an open-casket viewing. So, the body needs to be embalmed, and a location needs to be available for the people to meet for the event. Then, it is common to have the closed casket on display at the funeral. Finally, the activities end with a graveside service before the casket is buried.
This plan works for many families. But, other people are looking for alternative services without the fluff. If you are considering cremation, then a simplified cremation service might be the best solution. You can have the body reduced to ashes without worrying about the logistics, stress, and money that goes into full funeral services.
At Scott County Cremation, we offer everything that you need to show respect and care for your loved ones. Our team is working to keep the services affordable for our customers. You can get the basic services that are required, without spending a lot of money on a big event and a large funeral home.

Cremation FAQs
What does basic cremation include?

Can a cremation service also include a traditional ceremony or celebration of life?
Yes, a cremation service can certainly be combined with traditional ceremonies or a celebration of life. Many providers offer packages that facilitate a viewing or visitation before the cremation, and a memorial service afterward, which can be a full-fledged celebration of the person’s life, allowing friends and family to share memories and pay their respects.
What should I discuss with the funeral director regarding cremation options and costs?
When meeting with the funeral director, it’s important to discuss available cremation options, including direct cremation or service with viewing, as well as a clear breakdown of costs to ensure transparency and help you make an informed decision.
