Planning a funeral for a loved one can be one of the most challenging experiences. Not only are you an emotional wreck, but it can be financially draining if you are unsure what your options are and how to keep costs low. Individuals seeking a true solution will realize that a funeral comparison can help you to see what your options are, what the costs are and which organization is willing to work with you. Some of the options you have for funeral care include having the event in a church or a chapel, having a single service funeral or choose a memorial service. Many select the church or chapel service if they have religious affiliations. From there, a cemetery or crematorium service may be an option. The extent and details of your event will range widely. The single service funeral may occur in a funeral home’s chapel, church, graveside, and crematorium or in a special location you select. Here, there may be a formal committal process. A memorial service is a more private event with a private burial and cremation taking place.
