After cremation, families are often left wondering: What now? Here are a few thoughtful options:

🏡 Many choose to keep cremains in an urn, keepsake, or memorial display at home.
🌳 Scattering ashes in a meaningful place can be a beautiful tribute—but keep in mind it’s only legal on private property with permission.
⚱️Cremains can be laid to rest in a cemetery niche, columbarium, or buried in a family plot.
📿 Small amounts of cremains can be used to create wearable or displayable memorials.

Every family is different. It's important to do what feels meaningful and respectful to you and your family.

"Couldn’t be easier… They are all very helpful.”

We’re grateful when families share how Iowa Cremation helped simplify a difficult time. This review also brings up an important point:

➡️ If you are not the legal next of kin, having a notarized designee form in place is essential for ensuring your loved one’s wishes are honored without delays or complications.

Planning ahead brings clarity, comfort, and peace of mind.
