How Cremation Works.

Cremation is the process of burning a dead body at very high temperatures.  When the process is completed there remain only calcified bones which are then pulverized into ashes.  It is commonly understood that cremation is an inexpensive alternative to a funeral.  It certainly merits discussion with your family members.

How do you wish to spend eternity?  There are more options than perhaps you know.  When you opt for cremation your choices are many and varied.  More and more people are requesting that their ashes be placed in many different situations after death.  Of course, there are various laws and ordinances that must be adhered to, so make sure that you do your homework before making any decisions.

When you are faced with that ultimate task in life of pre-arranging your own funeral or planning the funeral of a loved one, please contact Colonial Funerals.  For many years our family has helped your family in this time of need.  We know that cost is always a consideration and we will help you save not splurge.  Call Colonial Funerals serving all of the great state of Connecticut at (203) 407-8899.

We Want You to Know the Price of a Funeral.

How many funeral homes actually say that?  Do they really want to quote a price and then abide by it without adding extras to the bereaved family?  That is not the reputation of most funeral homes.  You may have a pre-conceived notion of final expenses, but it always seems to add up with frills and extras that you just say yes to without considering because of your state of mind.

Let us introduce you to something refreshing.  The various prices of funerals right on our website.  And yes, we take you to the same cemetery for thousands less with the same care and compassion of any family funeral home in the state of Connecticut.

Discover this for yourself.  Visit our website at www.colonialfunerals.com.  You will notice that there are three basic packages listed on the site.  They are ALL more affordable than other funeral homes throughout the state.  You have enough stress already.  Make this experience as easy as possible.  Visit our website or give us a call at (203) 407-8899.
