A Cremation Funeral

Moss Funeral Directors understands that choosing cremation is deeply personal. Our Cremation Ceremonies offer a respectful tribute, with the deceased’s body cremated at a crematorium. Families can decide the disposition of ashes. Services can be held at a traditional crematorium or a chosen venue, while direct cremation offers a simpler option. Our ceremonies cater to personalized farewells, whether simple or comprehensive. With compassionate guidance, Moss Funeral Directors helps create a heartfelt remembrance for your loved one.

A Burial Funeral

Many of us are acquainted with the concept of a traditional burial, also referred to as interment or inhumation, typically occurring at a local churchyard or municipal cemetery. In this conventional approach, there exists a wider array of choices regarding the type of coffin or casket employed, embalming is permissible, and graves are distinctly identified. This provides relatives and acquaintances with a tangible location to revisit when cherishing the memories of their departed loved one.

Conversely, natural and eco-friendly burials often transpire within wooded areas or flower-filled meadows, frequently within grounds earmarked for future nature reserves. Graves in these settings often lack prominent markers, opting instead for modest biodegradable indicators like wooden plaques, if any at all.
