Cremation Services
The Trusted Cremation Provider
With roots in Winnebago and Outagamie Counties that stretch back to 1898, it’s no wonder Alexander Funeral Home & Cremation Center is the preferred funeral home for families who choose cremation. Since we own two on-site, private crematories operated by licensed funeral directors who are also certified crematory operators, you can know your loved one will be treated with dignity and respect. And they will never leave the care of our professional, reliable team.
Some people mistakenly believe that when you choose cremation, your options are somehow more limited. But with us, that is never the case. Nearly all our options are available to you with cremation, including a highly personalized funeral or reception.
While many families choose to keep their loved one with them always in an urn or keepsake, we can help you arrange for
burial
or placement at our lovely cemetery and beyond. If you would like to scatter your loved one’s cremated remains in a meaningful place, seek us out for help navigating local laws and regulations.
Traditional Funeral Service followed by Cremation
Many families find meaning and beauty in a traditional funeral service. With a traditional service combined with cremation, you can still choose to have a final viewing, visitation or wake, and a funeral service. However instead of in-ground burial, the funeral will be followed by cremation. Depending on your wishes, the cremated remains may be either returned to your family for storage in an urn, scattered, or interred in a columbarium. This option will include fees for the funeral services as well as the fees associated with the cremation itself.
Memorial Service
The memorial service can be held in our chapel, a church, or any other venue the family chooses. We work with our families to design a service that honors their loved one with stories, music, or scripture. We also have life celebrants that lead services where clergy may not be chosen. Our celebrants are trained in creating experiences that help start the healing process.
Graveside Service
A graveside or committal service is typically held immediately following the funeral service but it can also be a small intimate gathering of those closest to you.
