Unfortunately, Milwaukee County families don’t have to look too hard to find recent examples of cremations gone awry. Sometimes, the mistakes by cremation providers are honest mistakes – the result of human error. Other times, it’s gross negligence and a disregard for the preciousness of human life. Regardless of how it happens, when there is a mistake, grieving families are left devastated by the consequences. This has caused many to become wary of cremation, and rightly so.
This is why it was important to us to be able to offer this promise to our families:
- Your family member will always be treated with dignity and respect and will never leave our care.
- The cremated remains returned to you are, indeed, those of your loved one.
- Our staff adhere to a strict ethical code over-and-above the state regulations to ensure the best possible cremation
