Cremation Options
Often, when the choice is cremation, the perception is that the cremation process is the final step in the process. This does not need to be the case; when cremation is chosen, a final, permanent resting place allows for the life to be memorialized for immediate family as well as future generations. This permanency is the pillar of memories, communities and recognizing the significance for the individual’s life as it was lived.
Tranquility Waters
A soothing waterfall and garden at Pinelawn provides a meditative spot and exclusive spaces for cremation interment. The waterfall includes a granite front columbarium niche wall where cremation urns can be placed and memorialized with bronze nameplates.
Interior glass or bronze front niches
Located within the Chapel of the Pines, these allow a prominent display of creative urns which can reflect individual personalities. The niches accommodate personal mementos which can be memorabilia. Pinelawn offers a large variety of cremation urns, including artwork urns, to fit within the niches.
Granite cremation benches or memorial rocks
These memorials can be added to many different areas of the cemetery (with management approval) as a way to add burial options or to enhance areas where traditional burials cannot be performed. Cored holes are integrated into the granite, allowing a concealed area for cremated remains to be permanently placed.
Inurnment within traditional grave space
Regular spaces throughout the entire park can be used for burial of cremated remains. Standard memorials can be installed just as they would be for traditional ground burial. Pinelawn allows two cremated remains to be inurned within one standard space.
Urn Garden
Preinstalled bronze on granite memorials with special containers to hold cremated remains offer the most economical option for in-ground cremation inurnment.
One With Nature Cremation Trail
Pinelawn Memorial Park has developed an exclusive section within the park called the One with Nature Cremation Trail. The natural trail winds through a densely wooded area of the cemetery. The One with Nature Trail offers numerous types of memorialization options, many of which are unique to this designated area. The options allowed are meant to blend in with the natural setting of the trail.
