The Cremation Process: What to Expect
Authorization and Care
The journey begins with the completion of all necessary legal authorizations and permits required by the state of Nevada. Once these documents are in order, your loved one is brought into our care with the highest level of sensitivity and professionalism. We implement a rigorous identification system that stays with the individual throughout the entire process, ensuring total accuracy and peace of mind for the family. Our staff treats every individual with profound respect, preparing them for the cremation as if they were a member of our own family.
The Cremation Chamber
The actual cremation takes place in a clean, secure location designed specifically for this purpose. The deceased is placed into a dignified, combustible alternative container before being moved into the cremation chamber. Through the application of intense heat and flame, the body is reduced to its basic elements. This process typically takes several hours, and we maintain strict operational protocols to ensure that only one individual is cremated at a time, honoring the sanctity of the process.
Processing the Remains
Following the cremation, a cooling period is required before the remains can be further cared for. Once cooled, the bone fragments are carefully processed into a fine, uniform consistency often referred to as “ashes.” These remains are then placed into a high-quality temporary container or the permanent urn you have selected from our collection. This step is handled with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that 100% of the cremated remains are recovered and prepared for their final presentation to the family.
Return and Memorialization
The final step is the return of your loved one’s remains to your family, which can be done through a private appointment at our facility or as part of a scheduled memorial service. At this stage, you have the opportunity to decide on a permanent resting place, whether that involves a traditional burial, placement in a columbarium niche, or a personalized scattering ceremony in a place of meaning. This moment marks a transition toward healing, providing you with a tangible presence to keep close as you begin the journey of remembrance.
