It's no secret that life expectancy in the U.S. is trending
upward. A person born today can expect to live eight years longer than someone
born in the 1970s. But there's another trend you might not know about--and it's
related not to what happens while we're alive, but rather to what happens to
our bodies after we die.
Today the percentage of Americans who are being cremated is
nearing 50%. It is no longer a second
choice alternative, but rather a sensible first choice for a family. Families no longer stay in the old hometown
the way they used to. Since cremation is
usually cheaper than burial (at least when you don't use a cemetery to bury the
urn), it's an attractive prospect for people that simply do not have the budget
for a full-fledged funeral.
Colonial Funerals understands the stress that your family is
under and we are here to help you make those final arrangements and save you
money along the way. Please call
