On-Site Crematory
Cremation Service Options
When you choose cremation for your loved one, you deserve absolute certainty that they are treated with the utmost respect and integrity. At McMinnville Funeral Home, we are proud to offer the peace of mind that comes with having an
on-site crematory. McMinnville Crematory’s location on our property helps us serve our families better. We do not outsource cremation to a third-party facility. From the moment your loved one enters our care until they are returned to you, they never leave our facility.
Why Choose an On-Site Crematory?
Choosing a funeral home with its own crematory ensures a seamless, transparent, and highly secure process. Here is what that means for your family:
- Continuous Care: Your loved one stays under the direct supervision of our licensed, compassionate staff at all times.
- Safeguarded Tracking: We use a strict, multi-step identification system that guarantees the cremated remains returned to you are undeniably those of your loved one.
- Private Witnessing Available: For families who desire it, we offer a private viewing area where you can gather for a final goodbye or witness the beginning of the cremation process.
- Timely Process: Because we don't have to wait on external facilities or transport schedules, we can manage the timeline efficiently and keep you informed every step of the way.
Permanent Memorialization

Keeping an Urn at Home
This is a common choice and families can select the perfect urn for their loved one.

Placing the Urn in a Columbarium
Many families find comfort in having a final resting place that they can visit.

Burying the Urn
Similar to a casket, the in-ground burial of the urn allows for a final resting place.

Scattering the Cremated Remains
Some families find comfort scattering the cremated remains in a special place.
