Cremation gardens are now an essential interment facility in North American cemeteries. The relatively small site requirements and physical flexibility of cremation allows great variety in design and marketing. The economic value of a well-designed garden can be many times greater than a traditional burial section, while the service and maintenance costs are lower.
The message of cremation is to side with man as conqueror, using fire and technology to interfere with and control nature â rather than peacefully accept it. The message of burial is one of respect for the cycle of nature. When burying the remains of our loved ones, we calmly return what we have received.
