A funeral service and its staff play a critical role in planning and carrying out a meaningful funeral or memorial service.

The experience they have helps families understand all of the choices that are available to them in Iowa.

The Details
After receiving a few details from you we can begin the cremation process, but not before going over all cremation costs with you. You will never have to consider that we will perform any tasks without you knowing what the cremation costs for those tasks will be.
All cremation services need to obtain identification from you, things like a birth certificate, social security number, drivers license. We can make plans to come to you house if you need us to and bring our information over and we can get most everything completed in one trip. When you are planning to have a memorial ceremony after the cremation services we will spend more time with you planning this out.
Cremation pricing generally includes, transporting the departed to a crematory and returning to the place of the families' choice, obtaining all necessary paperwork, the container for the cremation process, plus a rigid container for the return of the remains.
The Memorial
With the additional cremation services, come an increase in the cremation costs, but we can assure you that they will still be thousands of dollars less than having a funeral and casket burial.
The memorial you have is a statement your family makes to the community at large: "Someone special to us has passed away. We are in grief and invite you to join us in remembering a life". Your local cremation professional can handle the details and help you create a unique service that fits your values and budget for cremation costs.
Many families choose to add a memorial service where family and friends can gather after the cremation and honor the departed. If you do not know what type of memorial service you would like to have, Legacy Cremation will have a professional staff member speak with you about the life you wish to commemorate and offer suggestions to give your loved one the unique memorial they deserve at cremation costs that you can afford.
As a trusted, two decade old cremation provider, you can be assured that Legacy will never try to talk you into extras that you do not need or cannot afford.
Part of the cost of cremation memorials depend on where you would like to hold the gathering. Many funeral homes will rent a viewing room by the hour. You will have the opportunity to customize the look of the room with pictures and items from your loved ones life, and even have meaningful music playing during the gathering. These cremation costs depend on the charges from the funeral home for the size of the room you need.
Memorials can also be held in a private hall, home or a restaurant. Heritage Cremation Provider will find a place that suits your needs, discuss all of the options with you and make all of the necessary arrangements for you.
Our objective at Legacy Cremation Services is to provide you with a dignified cremation that has the highest standards, at affordable cremation costs.
