Cremation
Cremation is a method of final bodily departure through incineration which results in the body reverting to its basic eath elements. This process is also typically used for those who have served their time after donating their body to science. Cremation typically uses a specialized machine, but in some countries, including India and Nepal, cremation is on an open-air pyre.
Average Price
The average price for cremation is $6,260 which includes providing printed certified copies of the death certificate from the local health department, expedite fee if applicable, cremation box exterior, the cremation, a witness cremation fee if applicable, and many other optional services provided by the funeral home.
