Onsite Crematory

People don’t often understand why an onsite crematory is so important for your peace of mind. You can feel relieved that your loved one is in the care of our funeral home from beginning to end, and we ensure that the cremation process is handled with the highest standards, dignity, and professionalism.

Peace Of Mind

You have peace of mind when your loved one is cared for by a funeral home with an onsite crematory. He or she never leaves our care, and the cremation is handled with the upmost care, dignity, and professional standards from our secure facility.

Continuously in Our Care

We are among a small number of funeral homes that are licensed to operate a crematory inside of our secure and dedicated facility. That ensures that your loved one is in our care from the time we pick up the physical body until you receive the cremated remains of your loved one.

Most funeral homes don’t tell you that they send out your loved one’s body for cremation and therefore lose control over the process. Even though they assure you of the highest standards, you still can’t be assured of their professionalism from start to finish like you can with a facility that performs in-house cremations. Contact us and we’ll be happy to explain the cremation process and offer you a personal inspection of our facility. 

Offering the Highest Standards

We ensure that your loved one’s cremation is handled with the upmost care, dignity, and adherence to the highest professional standards of the industry. We follow the strict industry guidelines of care that are a part of our cremation licensing that enables us to perform cremations in the State of Georgia. 

In addition, we are members of the Cremation Association of North America, which provides advanced certifications to our staff, and all of our staff adhere to the Cremation Code of Ethics, an assurance to you of our commitment to dignity and care for your loved one.

Cremation Options

If cremation has been selected, usually you’ll create a memorial service with or without the cremation urn present. You can choose to have a visitation, and then a memorial service in a church or chapel. Or you could decide to have a more relaxed service, even in your family home.

There is no standard formula for for honoring your loved one when cremation has been selected. We’re here to listen to your concerns, share our experience, and help you to arrive at the perfect way to gather together to celebrate the life of your loved one. Then you can decide if you want to bury the urn in a cemetery, scatter the ashes at a favorite place of the deceased or keep the urn as a memento of your loved one.

Memorial Service

Cremation only refers to the manner in which you or your loved one has chosen to deal with the physical remains. We want you to know that this decision doesn’t limit the ways you can honor your loved one’s life. We heartily suggest that you have a funeral or memorial service, because your need for such a healing experience is not lessened by the decision to be cremated. Again, the options are limited only by your imagination. We hope that you will contact us to discuss the wide variety of celebratory options open to you.

Scam Alert

It has come to our attention that a group of scammers is targeting the families of individuals who have recently passed away. These individuals falsely claim to represent our funeral homes. They fraudulently allege issues with payment or invent reasons to request additional funds. For instance, they may falsely state a need to cover ‘liability insurance,’ promising reimbursement later. In some cases, they demand sums like $1800.00, though amounts vary. They have even threatened to cancel funeral or burial services unless immediate payment is made over the phone. It appears these scammers obtain information from recently published obituaries and use public records and internet searches to find contact details.

We are deeply troubled that anyone would exploit others during such a difficult time, and we hope this scam will be stopped soon.

Please be aware of this scam and do not provide payment over the phone unless you personally know the caller. If you receive such a call, we advise hanging up and contacting us directly at 770-942-2311 or 770-459-3694.

We take this matter seriously and have alerted the appropriate authorities.
