Cremation Options

At Reed Funeral Home we recognize that cremation choices are becoming quite popular in our society. However, the funeral traditions within a client family can be deeply rooted when it comes to accepting the choice of cremation. Depending on individual values, there may be a stronger need to honor the loved one with funeral traditions prior to the cremation. We are pleased to offer our client families a variety of cremation services that incorporate all family values with the final wishes for cremation still taking place.
