• Funeral service—May be conducted at our funeral homes, a church, temple, or even a personal residence. Our facilities include graciously appointed chapels, conference rooms, and lounges to accommodate every need.

Cremation services

Increasing in popularity, the choice of cremation offers a wide variety of options for end-of-life services. From contemporary to traditional, cremation services are a unique expression of a cherished life.

JE Williams Funeral Home offer full cremation services, with the convenience of beautiful on-site locations for hosting either a private memorial service or public ceremony. When you choose cremation, the Williams family provides the same exemplary service and wide selection as with other funeral choices.

Cremation Offers Many Options

Reasons for choosing cremation may be spiritual, environmental, practical, or economical. Yet, many people are unaware that traditional funeral services are available with cremation.

You may prefer a visitation and funeral ceremony, with cremation following those services. Burial after cremation continues to be an option for many as well, and there are a variety of choices for disposition of the cremains.

The cost of cremation varies according to the services chosen and the final disposition of the cremated remains. There are many different service options, ranging from elaborate to very simple, and our experience extends to all faiths and cultures. The JE Williams Funeral Home family and staff specialize in meeting the unique wishes and needs of your family.
