Frequently Asked Questions:

• What is Cremation? Cremation is the process of reducing a deceased person's body to ashes through intense heat in a cremation chamber. The resulting remains, called cremains or ashes, are then typically placed in an urn.

• What are the different types of cremation services offered? JB Rhodes Funeral Home offers a range of services, including:

  • Direct Cremation: A simple and cost-effective option where the body is cremated without a viewing or funeral service.
  • Cremation with a Viewing or Memorial Service: This allows for a traditional farewell before cremation, offering closure and a chance to celebrate the life of the deceased.
  • Cremation with a Funeral Service: A full funeral service is held, followed by cremation. This option combines the traditions of a funeral with the finality of cremation.
  • Green Burial/Cremation: Environmentally conscious options using biodegradable urns and materials. (Learn more about our green burial options on our website: [link to relevant page on JB Rhodes website])

• What happens to the cremains after cremation? After cremation, the cremains are collected and placed in a chosen urn. Families have options regarding the final disposition of the cremains, including burial in a cemetery, scattering at sea or a special location, or keeping the urn at home.

• Can I personalize the cremation service? Absolutely! JB Rhodes Funeral Home encourages personalization. We work closely with families to design a service that reflects the unique personality and life of the deceased. This can include customized urns, memorial services, music selection, and more.

• What paperwork is required for cremation? Certain legal documents are required for cremation, including the death certificate and any necessary authorizations. Our experienced staff will guide you through this process and ensure all necessary paperwork is completed accurately and efficiently.
