Urns Collections
The selection of the urn is very important since it provides a dignified receptacle for the cremated remains. The urn can become the focal point at a memorial service and can serve as a permanent memorial to the deceased.
The type of urn selected depends on what you wish to do with the cremated remains after the cremation. Urns are available for scattering, for interment in a cemetery plot or niche, or for home display.

Urn Vaults
Urn Vaults shelter the urns that rest within, dependably sustaining the earth’s weight and resisting elements. Used for burial following cremation, these durable, attractive vaults are lightweight enough to be comfortably incorporated into service or ceremony- either at the funeral home or gravesite.

Living Memorial® Tree Planting Program
With every Options® urn, casket, or cremation container* purchased, a tree seedling will be planted free of charge in selected woodlands as a tribute to the deceased. The Living Memorial® tree planning program is made possible through a special agreement with the Untied States Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service and participating funeral homes.
In addition, international reforestation projects are underway in cooperation with The Grand River Foundation and The Canadian Forestry Association in Canada, the Australian Trust for Conservation Volunteers and the National Forest Company in the United Kingdom. The species and location of trees planted as part of the Living Memorial® program are determined by the appropriate government agency in charge, based upon the greatest need in that particular region. Thanks to funeral service professionals and caring families, more than eleven million trees have been planted though this most worthwhile program.
