Do You Want To Witness The Cremation Service?

Cremation Society of Milwaukee • April 6, 2020

If you know your loved one wanted cremation services in a direct manner, you might still have to decide if you want to view that process or not as a part of your goodbye.

If your loved one left their final wishes behind, you may already know that they wanted direct cremation in Milwaukee, WI. But there are still options and things you might have to decide. If they didn’t tell you one way or the other, you could decide whether or not you want to witness the cremation portion of the process. For some, this can be too intense of an experience. For others, it’s a part of the grieving process. Here are a few reasons you might like viewing the cremation as it happens.

To Say A Final Goodbye

You can say goodbye to your loved one in endless ways. Some people do so at a memorial service or through an ash scattering. But you might want to do so in a more intimate way with just close family members or even just one other person. Before the cremation process starts, you’ll have a final chance to say goodbye to your love done and that can be very poignant.

To Get The Closure You Need

You will have to get closure over your loved one’s death if you are ever going to move forward. You can get closure through seeing your loved one in a casket, having their urn present at a memorial service, or, perhaps viewing the cremation process. If you think seeing the cremation would give you the closure you need, it might be a good fit for them.

To Avoid Leaving Them Alone

Even though it’s only your loved one’s body that remains, you might not want to leave them alone with people they don’t know for this last process. You maybe feel like you wouldn’t want to be alone and so you want the same for them. You can be with them and you don’t have to leave them just yet. Watch the process and stay with them until the very end.

To Ensure Their Dignity

You likely vetted the cremation provider with care, and you know about their experience and history. But still, it can give you peace of mind to watch the process, so you know exactly how your loved one was treated and handled. When you see that they are given dignity to the very end, it can help you figure out how to move on. Giving your loved one what they deserve is a benefit to your healing process.
