Moloney’s Lake Funeral Home & Cremation Center

Why Choose Cremation?

Cremation is a popular choice for many families today, and for good reason. It offers a more affordable, environmentally friendly, and flexible alternative to traditional burial. But beyond the practical benefits, cremation also provides an opportunity to create a truly personalized farewell that celebrates the essence of your loved one.

• Environmental Sustainability: Cremation is a more eco-friendly option, as it doesn't require the use of land, embalming fluids, or caskets.
• Cost-Effective: Cremation can be a more budget-friendly choice, allowing you to allocate resources to other aspects of the memorial or celebration of life.
• Flexibility: Cremation gives you the freedom to plan a memorial service or celebration of life at a time and location that suits you best.
