What is Cremation, and Why is it Becoming the New Norm?
Cremation is a dignified and eco-friendly way to say goodbye to a loved one, and it's gaining popularity fast. In fact, the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA) predicts that by 2040, cremation will become the preferred choice for over 70% of Americans. But what's driving this shift?
For starters, cremation is a more affordable option compared to traditional burial methods. It's also a more environmentally friendly choice, as it reduces the need for land use, embalming fluids, and other resources. Plus, cremation gives families the flexibility to plan a memorial service that truly reflects their loved one's personality and spirit.
