Ashes disposal after cremation near Amstelveen
Any contact with pastors such as priests and pastors will be coordinated by Bouwens if desired, and we will also help put together the farewell gathering. We are there to guide you from A to Z. For example, in advising on the final destination of the ashes. Some examples:
- Urn wall or urn garden: These are special areas where urns containing the ashes of the deceased are placed. They can be placed individually or with other urns.
- Columbarium: A columbarium is a structure with niches or compartments in which urns are kept. This provides a memorial and permanent resting place for the ashes.
- Burial in the cemetery: Some people choose to bury the urn with the ashes in the cemetery. This can be done in a special urn grave or in an existing grave.
- Scattering: Ashes can be scattered in a special scattering field at the cemetery, in nature, at sea, or in another meaningful location. This can be symbolic and create a sense of connection with the deceased.
- Memorial jewelry: Jewelry is available that can hold a small amount of ashes, such as pendants, bracelets and rings.
- Keep at home: Although this can vary culturally, some people choose to keep the urn with ashes at home.
Taking care of obituary printing and sending funeral mail is also handled professionally. Important details such as flowers, the casket, funeral transportation and pallbearers are arranged with care. If there is a need for catering, this can also be provided, even at your home.
