I just wanted to say thanks for the beautiful memorial service. It was so personal and dignified (just how my husband would have wanted). Thank you for helping me celebrate such a wonderful life with such honor.

At Legacy Cremation Services, we will make sure that one person will oversee your needs, make sure that no detail will be forgotten, and keep you appraised of cremation costs.
To Begin
After you make that first call, we at Legacy Cremation Services will begin the process of the initial service you chose and you can take time to be with your family. We will speak with the medical examiner, obtain all death certificates and paperwork needed for the cremation process, and have the body escorted to the crematory or funeral home. At Legacy Cremation Services, we also assist you with filing papers for Veterans benefits, Social Security, and life insurance papers at no extra cremation costs. Doing paperwork at a time like this can be very demanding and we know that our services will reduce some of the strain you may be under.
Examples of Memorials for Cremation Services or Visitation at Funeral Homes
The ideal memorial for your loved one is one that suits the type of life they lived. This is a significant time for family members and friends to reflect on their loved one's life and to be able to say their final farewell. A memorial detailed with articles that will bring recollections of good times shared with others, and beloved items of the departed is what anyone would respect, this is what we at Legacy Cremation Services wants to help you achieve.
Suggestions are of no cremation costs to you
Some families in Connecticut have memorial tables arranged in a hall if cremation took place, or the visitation room of the funeral home. These tables display the departed's particular lifestyle. Every visitor who comes to pay their last respects will be able to view items the deceased loved and really get a sense of who they were.
A few items that families incorporate into memorials are beloved fishing lures or quilts, favorite hats, musical instruments, golf clubs, books and photos. Several families even have a small band play, or the departed's favorite music playing in the background. Other families make short videos of their loved one's life, and show that during the memorial or visitation.
If you bring an article and set up there is no cremation costs for that
If your loved one was cremated scattering their ashes at sea as part of the services is a popular way that families memorialize someone who enjoyed the water, or boating. A small gathering of people aboard a yacht has a ceremony as the ashes are scattered over the sea. Exact coordinates are given to the family so they can visit the exact location in the future. A memorial service for a larger group of people can be held before, or after the scattering of the ashes. The added cremation costs will be discussed before any services take place.
The arrangements for any of these services are part of what we at Legacy Cremation Services do. We will cover all of the cremation costs with you based on the type of services you would like have. If what you desire is too expensive, we will find arrangements that work for you and include them in the cremation costs. We will do the work so you have time to grieve with your family and remember the good times you shared with your loved one
When you use our services, you will find that you are working with professionals who are also compassionate to your circumstances. We at Legacy Cremation Services in Connecticut strive to make sure that our family helps your family produce a true reflection of your loved one's life with either funeral or cremation services at affordable cremation costs.
