What Are My Options At W.C.M.P.?
Ground Interment
Ground interment is probably the most common form of burial when one thinks of a cemetery. Ground burial is most commonly side by side and is available in single, double, and family estates.
Lawn Crypts
Lawn crypts are often referred to as the “underground mausoleums.” The lots are situated on a raised area of land, where both single and double depth crypts are pre-installed in the ground. The already installed vaults eliminate the need to purchase one at the time of interment.
Mausoleum
The first mausoleum was created in 353 B.C. by Queen Artemisia in the ancient city of Halicarnassus (now southwestern Turkey.) The tomb was built to hold the remains of her late husband, King Mausolus. The word “Mausoleum” was taken from the king’s name and the first one is regarded as the 5th of The Seven Wonders of The World.
We offer both single and double casket and cremation options for mausoleum burial. The entombments are placed inside the crypt space, which is then sealed with a concrete panel and a granite front is attached to the outside. When mausoleum burial is selected you eliminate the need to purchase a vault or a bronze headstone. In most cases, the mausoleum is comparable to ground burial in regards to costs.
Our Heritage II Mausoleum features both cremation and traditional entombment. We are currently offering these units at a fraction of the cost, for pre-landscaped prices. For more information please contact Brian Killelea.
Prices for all three types of arrangements, ground interment, lawn crypts, and mausoleums, vary depending on location and number of spaces required. Over 90% of our clients have chosen prearrangement because:
1. It makes sense.
2. They like what we offer.
3. It's so affordable.
