• DIRECTION FOR CREMATION
A Direction for Cremation allows you to name an individual who will carry out your
directions regarding cremation. At your direction, your ashes might then be kept
in an urn or scattered.

For a variety of personal and financial reasons, about half of all people in the U.S.
choose cremation over burial.

John and Mary were both buried. Neither of them had ever made their wishes
known and no one knew what they would have wanted.
