There comes a time in everyone’s life when they have to deal with the death of a loved one. This is an intensely traumatic time, so people often do not feel able to deal with the finances involved. Also, when in the time of having to make decisions about burial or cremation, people go through intense guilt if they have to consider the high costs of traditional funerals.
They feel as if they dishonour the deceased loved one by talking budgets. In this time of mourning they feel that they should not care about costs; after all this is the last way to show how much they honour and love that person.
This is natural psychological reasoning in a time of grief. At Lay to Rest we understand that. This is why we are always available to advise people and answer their questions, and show them how cost effective cremation urns can be.
Beautiful and respectful
The price of a traditional funeral with casket and all that goes with that is astronomically expensive. Cremation urns cost a fraction of that, yet they can also be far more personal. With the huge variety of cremation urns available on the market, there is no shortage of choice.
We offer cremation urns that you can associate with an aspect of the loved one’s life, or more traditional and formal urns as well as hand painted urns. We feel that the wider the variety is, the more at ease our clients will feel and the more appropriate their final choice will be. A cremation urn allows you to keep the memories alive and having a fitting tribute to your loved one, without incurring a huge debt in the process.

A Fitting Tribute
Friday, September 4th, 2009Urns ? Your Personal Choice
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009There is so much that happens around the time of any bereavement that most people make important decisions in haste. Everything has to be done in the shortest time possible and sometimes afterwards people are left with a feeling of not having done things exactly the way they really wanted to.
This is why it is good that you do not have to make an immediate decision about a cremation urn. If people had to make immediate decisions they would probably simply decide to accept the first item they see because they are understandably not ready to think about it properly.
What most people need and want is a period of grace to make their decision as to the container for their loved one?s ashes.
Take your time
With Lay To Rest, you can take as long as you need until you are ready to choose the cremation urn or ashes casket you want. There are such a vast assortment of cremation urns and ash caskets available today that it can feel overwhelming to have to choose. However, there is no right or wrong type of cremation urn; it is all about personal choice.
First choice is whether the cremation urn will be interred? Or, whether you wish to have a cremation urn you will keep in your home or maybe in the garden. It is so much easier to make the decision once a period of time has gone by.
Then you can look at the many different options we have and choose an urn that you feel your loved one would have found appealing and fitting. This is an important decision which should only be made when you are ready.
