Choosing a Final Resting Place
Why a Final Resting Place is Important
Carefully consider your final resting place. This location is where future generations will visit to learn about their ancestors and where loved ones will come on holidays to honor your memory. Choose a location that is comfortable, beautiful, convenient, and enduring.
A memorial service can be arranged with any option you select.
If direct cremation or immediate burial with no services or ceremonies is preferred, Krause Funeral Homes & Cremation Service will respect the specific wishes and handle each detail with dignity and professionalism.
In addition to personal choice, we have found families make final resting place decisions for the following reasons:
Burial

– Family tradition
Cremation
– Environmental concerns about burial
– Is typically less expensive than traditional burial
Entombment
– Prefers to be above ground or indoors
Green Burial
– Wishes to use easily biodegradable materials or avoid chemical preservatives
Body Donation
– Helps to advance medical practices and medical research
