When a family loses a beloved member, funeral planning can be overwhelming. Lanham-Schanhofer Funeral Home in Sparta, Wisconsin, cares deeply about you and your deceased loved ones. Not only do they provide full burial services, but they also offer cremation services. Cremation is a simple, beautiful way to honor the departed.

The licensed and professional staff at Lanham-Schanhofer Funeral Home is knowledgeable and compassionate. This staff will work with you and your family to plan your loved one's cremation and memorial service. All meetings are confidential and respectful. 

In a way, cremation services are similar to burial services. Both honor the departed and allow families to mourn. However, cremation tends to be less expensive, and a family may feel comforted by the versatility of cremation. Typically, a family will release their loved one's ashes into the world, but that doesn't have to happen. With a cremation, you and your family may choose to scatter the ashes with flower petals, keep the urn with the ashes inside, or place the urn in a grave site. 

The cost of cremation will depend on the products and services you purchase. A cremation casket, an urn, a burial vault, transportation of the remains, and funeral services are some examples of products and services you should factor into your budget. A caring professional from Lanham-Schanhofer Funeral Home will be by your side when you're making these difficult and emotional decisions.

Lanham-Schanhofer Funeral Home is Sparta's oldest continuous business that has operated at their original location.
