You might be comforted to know that a Direct Cremation has all of the dignity of a traditional funeral, but with a lot less fuss. If you think your loved one would have been uncomfortable with typical formalities like a hearse and flower arrangements, then it may be the right choice for them, as these sorts of thing are not normally included. Normally, they are unattended and occur without any guests, but if you would like to attend in Dumfries, we can arrange this easily for you. Ordinarily, we would arrange the collection of your loved one, and bring them to the crematorium. Then, afterwards, we can either personally return their ashes to you, or scatter them for you at the crematorium itself, in their special garden -- whatever you think is best.
Suddenly needing to deal with the expense of an unexpected funeral would add financial strain to most families at the best times, and we understand that. We hope it is some small comfort to know that, generally, this type of ceremony is less expensive than others, and that the average cost of a British could be more than twice the price of an Aura funeral. We are able to arrange this type of funeral for you in Dumfries from £1,095. But we'd be very pleased to hear from you over the phone, so that we can have a proper chat about your needs, and give you a precise quote.
One of the most important parts of our work is to help people to make their loved one's ceremony as personal and reflective of their spirit as possible. If you would like our support with this, you are more than welcome to give us a call, and we can discuss things together. As an example, some people like to make sure that they are able to attend their loved one's funeral in person with family and friends, which we can simply arrange. There are others who feel that it is important to see their loved one a final time before the ceremony in the chapel of rest. Whatever your needs and wishes, we will do our best to help you put them into practice.
It is helpful to remember that each funeral is unique and different in its own way, and this can have an impact on the time it could take to organise things for you. After you have shared your thoughts with us over the phone, we will be in a much better position to share some specifics with you about how long things could take to sort out. We could organise one of our more personalised options in Dumfries for you within a fortnight, but other options will need a bit more time. As ever, you are more than welcome to call us whenever you need answers to a specific question, otherwise we can promise to regularly update you of everything we are doing from our side.
There are many ways in which suddenly needing to plan a funeral can provoke fears and worries. We want you to know that we are here to help you as much or as little as you may need. Our team of experts -- the Angels -- are there to listen to what you have to say, and to give you the space you need to tell us what is on your mind. They are trained to ask exactly the right questions so that they can get the information they need to help you best. We want to be able to free you from the hassle of planning and organising, if that is what you would like, meaning that you have the peace of mind to be in the moment.
