Caskets
Caskets provide a dignified final resting place for your loved
one who has passed away. Caskets are made of wood and metal. Our
large casket showroom will allow you to select a casket that
fits your needs and your budget. Caskets range in prices from
$795 and up. Our caskets can be adjusted by color and styles.
Urns
Very much like caskets, urns range in price from a few hundred
to thousands of dollars. Urns are made of several different
materials such as metal, ceramic, hardwood, glass and stone.
Cremated remains can also be placed in jewelry such and brooches
and pendants. They can even be transformed into gems and
diamonds. Urns can be selected with the intentions of the family
wishes. Cremated remains can be scattered, buried or placed on a
mantle in the home of the loved one. There are certain rules
when it comes to burying ashes and scattering them. If you have
any questions please call Cooney Funeral Home at any time.
Vaults
Most cemeteries require the caskets be placed in a burial vault.
Vaults are made of concrete, steel and marble. They protect the
casket and the ground above. Today cemeteries use of heavy
machinery to open and close the grave giving us the need for
vaults. Vaults also vary in prices depending on the quality and
style selected.
Flowers
The presence of floral arrangements at funeral services date all
the way back to the Egyptian ceremonies and the grandeur of the
Greek funeral rites. Flowers are the most popular form of a gift
for the families of the deceased. If one can’t attend the
services, one can always send flowers in memory of. If you have
a preferred florist you should turn to them first. Our advice to
anyone sending flowers is to contact the funeral director where
the services are being held. If anyone knows of a dependable,
likable florist, it would be the funeral director.
For families of the deceased, the traditional arrangements from
the family is a set of floral ends to be placed at each end of
the casket and a floral spray for the top of the casket. Ribbons
with words of affection will be placed on each arrangement. They
are usually a mix of colorful flowers or can be upgraded using
one’s favorite selection such as roses and the cost will vary
because of personal preferences
