Services
Direct Cremation
Our Direct Cremation service provides a straightforward, cost-effective option for families seeking essential cremation without additional ceremonies. This package includes professional handling of necessary paperwork, transportation, and the cremation process itself. Clients receive the deceased's ashes in a temporary container, with options to upgrade urn selections for personalized remembrance.
Family Viewing Package
The Family Viewing Package allows immediate family members to spend up to one hour in our visitation room for a private farewell. This service includes preparation of the deceased and facility use during regular business hours, providing a comfortable space for intimate gatherings before cremation occurs.
Memorial Service Package
Our Memorial Service Package supports personalized tributes either at our facility or chosen venues. It includes coordination for venue setup, audiovisual equipment, and guest accommodations, helping families create meaningful celebrations of life tailored to their loved one's unique legacy.
DNA Preservation
In partnership with SecuriGene, we offer DNA preservation services that extract and store genetic material for future medical or familial reference. This process captures critical health and ancestry information before cremation, providing long-term value for surviving family members' healthcare planning and heritage documentation.
Estate Planning Assistance
Through our collaboration with Hillenbrand Kozicki LLP, we provide estate planning resources including will preparation and executor guidance. This service helps clients organize legal affairs proactively, ensuring clear directives for asset distribution and end-of-life wishes while reducing future administrative burdens for families.

While unfortunate that we required the services of Simply Cremations, my family was treated with the utmost respect, kindness and sensitivity in an emotional and tragic time. Tom was knowledgeable, kind and patient in answering our numerous questions in making the final arrangements for our loved one. I truly appreciate the efforts made by all at Simply Cremations to make this difficult experience as easy as possible on a grieving family. Thank you.

Learn how to treat you customers with respect and treat them the way you would if your loved one passed away. How unprofessional to make things worse for grieving families! Highly recommend to go somewhere else. Not a good experience while saying goodbye!

We just had a cremation done here. They were prompt, courteous, businesslike and did everything expected. While they did not give us an emotinally supportive funeral-home experience, we neither paid the fees for that nor expected it. They explained the entire process and were great to deal with.

I contacted Simply Cremations weeks before needed to discuss options. When needed last week, the service was first-rate all the way though. Staff were polite and courteous and costs exactly as listed. Polite, fair and reasonably priced. Thanks to all.

After reading the negative reviews, I am quite shocked. Our experience was nothing less than positive during the difficult time during of our mothers passing. They were very accommodating and kind. Operating a service such as this must be incredibly difficult - to be surrounded by death constantly. It was affordable and they accommodated our request for a service outside of their regular hours.
