niffen O'Malley Leffler Funeral and Cremation Services, Inc. We offer any service that you might need while making funeral arrangements. There will be many decisions to make, and it is our goal to help you throughout this process. You may be wondering whether to opt for a cremation or burial for your loved one. Cremation is chosen for different reasons both religious and personal, as well as practical. A cremation is often less expensive overall than burials, and there are more options for storage and services. Ashes of the loved one may be stored in an urn, or they may be scattered in a special place. Since the remains are portable, the options for memorial services are many. For those who opt for cremation, we have a wide selection of urns from which to choose. For burials, we offer traditional funeral services. This would typically include a visitation at our funeral home, a memorial service at a place of worship and a burial ceremony. The visitation may either be a closed or open casket, according to your wishes. And although some funeral homes can be overwhelming, we have a beautiful facility for receiving guests and family. For funeral services with burials, we can help you choose from a variety of caskets. Our caskets come in many different materials and styles from simple to lavish.
