Funeral Home and Cremations in Perkasie, PA: Which Services Should I Choose?

Because circumstances are individual, there is no one “must-have” type of funeral or cremation service package. Instead, each family will need to choose what fits their unique situation. A little information regarding funeral home and cremations in Perkasie, PA, might help.

A funeral service is most often held within a reasonably short time (usually 1-2 weeks) after a death occurs. This is practical since the body is generally present at the funeral. Embalming the body is a process that sanitizes and preserves the remains. This, and refrigerated storage facilities, can extend the window so that immediate burial (within 1-2 days) is not necessary. If a viewing is to be held prior to the funeral, embalming is often legally required.

A cremation service may be performed with or without a connected honorary service. When cremation is chosen, the timeline for holding a service can sometimes be more flexible. This option takes care of the pressing, time-sensitive portion of the final disposition. In doing this, there is more planning time for a memorial service to be held in the future. Conversely, many families choose to have a traditional full funeral and then proceed to have their loved one cremated instead of buried in a casket.

A Funeral Celebrant is a specially certified and trained professional who assists the family through the planning process during the time of loss. The Celebrant spends time collecting the stories and memories of the departed loved one from the surviving close family and friends. They then design a personalized, uniquely individual service to honor the decedent.



Naugle Funeral & Cremation Service, Ltd. has a Funeral Celebrant on staff. The services of our Celebrant are not limited to funerals either. He can assist in any type of honoring service for the deceased, including a tree planting, memorial, graveside, dedicatory, or anniversary service.

This is a time when extended families have often spread around the country or even the world! Having ways to connect at a time of loss is more critical than ever. Add to it the recent pandemic conditions, and even those nearby have sometimes been unable to gather physically. Our team has prepared sophisticated and secure options to support those who are unable to meet together for whatever reason.
