The Choice is Yours: Funeral Home and Cremation in Coopersburg, PA

It may surprise you to learn that there are many different options available for arranging the services to honor your loved one. All the way from simple cremation or burial to full-service funerals, there are many combinations of services that families might choose. Here is a look at a few different options for funeral home and cremations in Coopersburg, PA.

A cremation can be handled with or without a service. Sometimes it is performed after a full funeral service. At other times this is performed before a memorial, graveside, or scattering service. The cremated remains have greater flexibility for the final resting place. Cremation service has grown in popularity around the country. However, many still choose traditional casket burial as well.

A traditional full funeral complete with viewing or visitation before the service is still a practice that many use to bring closure and respectfully say goodbye. This is most often held within a few days to two weeks or so after the death occurs. The funeral service is typically held with the body of the deceased present, usually in a closed casket. The event is marked with the sharing of stories to honor the memory of the dead.

At Naugle Funeral & Cremation Service, Ltd., you will have the unusual opportunity to work with our specially trained and certified Funeral Celebrant. A Celebrant compassionately works with families to create a service specifically designed to honor the deceased's unique aspects. These recollections (as remembered by the surviving loved ones) are then shared at the service. The Celebrant can serve at any gathering that has been designed with honoring those that have passed on.

The world is vast, but technology can still bring us together. With global travel and international lifestyles more common today than ever, our team of experts has found that many families want to offer to honor services in a digital format. Thanks to technology, a grandson who works overseas and is unable to arrange for travel on short notice can still be included in his beloved grandmother's funeral.

Our digital webcasting services can be supported for all events originating from our funeral home. This is a secure, passcode-protected connection. It may be viewed in real-time or viewed anytime within the following 90 days. The family will also receive this recording on DVD at no extra charge.

There are places for photos to be uploaded, memories to be shared, and the official obituary can be reviewed. There are hyperlinks for quick sharing of this memorial site via email or social media outlets.

How much does it cost for headstone?

• When choosing a headstone after a cremation service, the estimated cost of a regular flat headstone is around $1,000. But more detailed, upright headstones will cost between $1,000 and $3,000, as you can see with this granite headstone and another one at a higher price point.

Does a spouse of a veteran have to pay for a funeral?

• Burial benefits available for spouses and dependents buried in a national cemetery include burial with the Veteran, perpetual care, and the spouse or dependents name and date of birth and death will be inscribed on the Veteran's headstone, at no cost to the family.

What to do if death occurs at home?

• If the person dies unexpectedly at home without taking care of the hospital, call 911. Have a do-not-resurrect document in hand if it exists. Without one, paramedics will generally initiate emergency procedures and, except where the person is allowed to pronounce the death, take the person to the emergency room for the doctor to make the declaration.
