People are
choosing funeral services that are more
reflective of the person and fit the
lifestyle of the family. And with more and
more ethnic groups living in our city,
traditional funerals now incorporate many of
the customs and ceremonies of different
cultures. In any given year, Cheshire Family
Funeral Home will conduct funeral services
for Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, Jewish,
Buddhist and Hindu families, not to mention
families that opt for non-religious,
humanistic services. Given the diverse group
of families that we serve and the different
options that we provide, there are many
choices available when it comes to a
funeral.
Understanding
Cremation
Many families today are choosing cremation.
All funeral homes advertise "cremation
services", but don't be fooled! Practically
all area funeral homes use common, multiple
user, off-site industrial crematories to
handle their cremations. Cheshire Family
Funeral Home utilizes the services of
Tri-State Crematory, owned and operated by
Lisa McKenna, wife of CFFH owner Tristan
McKenna. This private, close-to-premise
crematory ensures you the highest standards
of care, comfort and accountability. Being
affiliated with an actual crematory operator
serving more cremation families every year
than the majority of all other area funeral
homes, we know all there is to know about
cremation, and would like to share that
knowledge with you so you can be an informed
consumer. Please attend one of our free
monthly cremation seminars or, with our
"open door" policy, drop by anytime and we
would be proud to give you a private tour of
our operation and discuss the services of
Tri-State Crematory.
We are also capable of serving your pet
cremation and burial needs. Cheshire Family
Funeral Home is proud to offer these equally
important services, including pet caskets
and cremation urns, and a partnership with
Ashfield Pet Crematory . Please call or
email us for more information.
Signature Services
We offer many ways to help families
personalize and customize a funeral or
memorial service. Personalization not only
provides a special way to remember a loved
one, it also allows those present to
participate in the ceremony.
In addition to our Signature Service Items, we welcome the
opportunity to discuss other options as well
to assist you in creating a truly memorable
service. |
