SERVICES TO HEAL FAMILIES
SERVICES TO HEAL FAMILIES
Our guarantee at Zwick & Jahn Funeral Homes, we witness every cremation to ensure that each individual is returned properly…it is the only way to offer such a guarantee if you do not own your own crematory. Your loved one NEVER leaves our care!
When there is no viewing and funeral service involved, next is the cremation and the ashes will either be scattered, returned to the family or buried in a family cemetery.
The funeral service can be held in a church or any other venue the family chooses. We work with our families to design a service that honors their loved one with stories, music, or scripture. We also have life celebrants that lead services where clergy may not be chosen.
A graveside or committal service is typically held immediately following the funeral service but it can also be a small intimate gathering of those closest to you.
1. Forty-eight hours must pass from the time of death until cremation takes place
2. The legal next of kin must sign the Cremation Authorization Forms
3. Positive Identification Required. Most families select private or public visitation and services
before the cremation.
4. A physician or coroner must sign the death certificate (this can range from several days up
to weeks)
5. The Cremation can be scheduled
Most families select services with their loved one present before the cremation to allow for closure and
the healing process to begin. At Zwick & Jahn Funeral Homes, families can select to utilize a rental casket
or select our Slumber Bed for families that do not wish to rent or buy a casket. Following the cremation
process many families select interment or entombment of the cremains in a cemetery to allow for
permanent memorialization and a place for loved ones to visit.
