At least one person has remarked that everyone is born old-age positive, which means that everyone will eventually grow old and, due to the circle of life, pass away. When the time comes to go to your rest, how do you want things to go? Do you want a traditional earth burial or a cremation? More and more people are going with cremation for numerous reasons. Read on for a look at how an Elko New Market, MN cremation can help you to keep things simple. 


Straightforward 


When you stop to think about it, cremation is actually a pretty simple body disposition option. If you’re the sort of person who wants to keep things nice and simple without any pomp and circumstance, then a cremation is the perfect way to mark your passing. You can speak to a death care services provider in the area to get a feel for what goes into preplanning a cremation. Because a lot of the extras associated with traditional earth burial are not needed in cremation, you’ll find that arranging things will be much easier and there’ll be fewer big choices to make. If you strive to live a simple life and to avoid drama, then cremation is the perfect body disposition. 


Affordable 


One of the reasons cremation is growing in popularity is that it tends to be cheaper than traditional funeral services. Again, cremation does not have to include a church service, a gravesite service, a viewing, a reception, a coffin and some of the other things associated with traditional earth burial. You can save quite a bit of money therefore by choosing cremation over traditional earth burial. Many people find it difficult to spend the kind of money that is required to have a traditional funeral service with all of the add-ons that are customarily included. You can be a good steward of money even in your final send-off by choosing cremation. 


Timely Disposition 


It’s not uncommon for people planning a traditional earth burial for a deceased loved one to have the body in refrigeration for weeks as they plan and as family members travel to get to the funeral location. That means delaying the disposition and the costs can add up. With cremation, the time between death and the actual cremation is very short. You can always ask your family to hold a memorial in your behalf if you want to give them an opportunity to grieve corporately and to come to terms with your passing.
