At Abriola Parkview Funeral Home, we know many people want to honor the dearly departed without impacting the environment. Since 1906, we’ve been helping people throughout the Greater Trumbull, CT, community plan eco-friendly funeral services that will lessen their carbon footprints.

Below, our compassionate team shares three green options for funeral services:

  • Cremation: Modern crematoriums have made advancements to reduce toxic emissions into the air. If cremation is part of you or your loved one’s pre-arranged funeral plans, you can ask your funeral director what measures they have in place for a green cremation.   
  • funeral servicesTraditional Casket Alternatives: If you select a traditional burial, hardwood coffins and concrete burial vaults will delay the natural decomposition process. Instead, choice a cardboard, bamboo, or jute coffin. These green alternatives breakdown easily, letting your loved one’s remains unite with the earth faster.
  • Choose a Living Marker: Mourners will want to have a place they can visit to remember their deceased friend or family member. If you don’t want to put concrete into the ground, bypass quarried headstones and marble mausoleums in favor of living markers. Planting a tree or bush in your loved one’s honor will give people a place to visit that positively impacts the environment.

If you need help planning funeral services, our dedicated, respectful team at Abriola Parkview Funeral Home is here to help. We treat every client like family and will handle every aspect of the process, from helping to write eulogies and obituaries to picking out funeral flowers.
