CREMATION FACTS and YOUR RIGHTS

- UrnXpress.com -

Although cremation may be forbidden by a few religions, the current trend toward cremation is growing within the United States. Throughout the rest of the world, cremation has been part of the death and burial customs of many countries for up to 1000's of years. Cremation is now permitted either by law or custom through-out a majority of the world's countries. In the United States, several factors have contributed to this increasing selection of cremation:

The increasing Life Expectancy of Americans. Living and medical expenses sometimes deplete the estate bringing the selection due to finances.

Educational levels have increased with less concern for traditional burial customs and practices. Environmental issues sometimes reflect this choice.

Migration to Retirement Locations across the country is increasing with ties to family and Tradition lessening.

Immigrant origins have changed, bringing families to the United States with a history of cremation selection for burial rites.

Acceptance and diversity of choice are growing. No longer considered unusual or unacceptable, many people are now directing their family to select cremation upon their death.

Whatever the reason for your selection - remember it is YOUR CHOICE! URNXPRESS.COM encourages you to choose your urn with care. We can provide you with something that reflects a life lived, an exotic Art selection for display, or practical simplicity to provide secure transport to a final resting place.

Each urn has varying dimensions in outside size and cubic inch capacity inside for the cremated remains. The average Individual urn has capacity of 180 cu in to approximately 220 cubic inches. The type of cremation container used (cardboard, particle board, or hardwood), will also affect the amount of remains. The processing equipment used will also determine the size needed. If you have cremated remains that were processed years ago, and are now selecting a permanent urn, you may wish to have them re-processed by a local Cremation provider. Most will gladly provide this service at little or no cost.

Keepsake urns are increasing popular among families who wish to distribute cremains among family members, or perhaps will be scattering the cremains at the same time retaining just a small portion for the future.
