How We "ID Guarantee"
One...
Your Loved One Never Leaves Our Care
Many other funeral homes hire third party crematories, typically located in a warehouse district. These funeral homes transfer your loved one to outside cremation services, making it impossible for the funeral home to manage and supervise the cremation.
We have our own crematory, so all your services are handled and managed by our certified staff and your loved one never leaves our care.

Safeguarding Personal Identity
To ensure security, a personal identification band is placed on your loved one at the moment your loved one is transferred to our care.
Three...
Tracking System
Your loved one is logged into our tracking system and assigned an identification number, which is stamped into a stainless steel identification tag. This number is used to track every phase of the cremation process. Our tracking system includes date and time of arrival at our facility and name of the transfer technician. Personal belongings are catalogued and placed in a secure area for their return to family.

Cremation Assurance Process
Checks and Balances
Two individuals, a cremation technician and a funeral home staff member, will review all cremation paperwork. This is to ensure authorizations have been received and have been properly documented. Once all documentation is verified, both staff members must sign the cremation order, prior to the cremation.
Cremation Log Book
This cremation log book records the name of the individual, date and time of the cremation, identification number, crematory operator's name, as well as additional information regarding the cremation. Our crematory log is dated and the start time is noted and initialed by a cremation technician before and after the cremation.
Other Documentation
The crematory documents, personal identification card and stainless steel identification tag are placed on the outside of the cremation chamber during the cremation process.
Five...
After the Cremation
After the cremation is complete, the cremated remains are placed with the stainless steel identification tag into an urn. The identification card is placed into our permanent files.

Receiving Cremated Remains
Our staff will notify you to schedule a time for receipt of the cremated remains. At this time, we will provide a dignified setting, in which to receive the urn, where you may spend a few moments, privately, in quiet reflection.

Honoring Life
We will assist in planning a funeral or memorial service either before or after the cremation, which you will appropriately celebrate the life of your loved one. A meaningful ceremony provides an opportunity for family and friends to pay tribute to your loved one and to share the memories of a lifetime.
