Our
Service
Cremation Basics offers one specific type of service --
Simple Cremation. A simple cremation is cremation without viewing
or ceremony where the deceased is removed from the place of death
and held for a period of 48 hours, mandated by the state of Maine.
During this time period, required certification is secured and
filed with the state. The deceased is placed in a cremation container
constructed of cardboard, one that meets the minimum requirements
of the state, and is then transported to the local crematory in
Bangor. Once the cremation process is complete, the remains are
returned to a designated person or cemetery. We suggest that families
choosing to view prior to cremation, do so before initial transfer
is made from the place of death.
Mission
Our mission
is to meet the changing needs of consumers by offering a simple,
affordable and specific option to traditional funeral services and
to provide our service in a professional, dignified and understanding
manner.
Our
Logo
At the center is an urn
that gives us a defined focus of simplicity with a flame and a shroud
that offers to the families we serve the light of eternal hope and
solace at a time of vulnerability. The diamond, a sign of fortitude
and importance, and the wreath, a sign of reverence and dignity,
encompass all that we do. The rising sun over a pyramid reminds
us of the accomplishments and greatness of our human labors in the
years past yet allows us to be futuristic in our thinking with a
willingness to accept changes of a new era.
