What is A Direct Cremation?

Commonly known as a basic or unattended funeral 

A direct cremation is the most basic and simple cremation and an increasingly popular, affordable alternative to a traditional funeral. This option is for people who want a no-frills funeral. Friends and family won’t be able to attend the cremation, but that provides the opportunity to arrange something more suited to you.
