Cremation Services

Many times cremation can mean limited options. At Garrett-Sykes, that is not the case. We offer as many service options with cremation as we do with traditional burial. Arrange a visitation, memorial service, catered gathering, or graveside burial. It’s all up to you.

Design a traditional funeral with a viewing and burial or create a contemporary memorial service with a scattering ceremony by the sea.

Whatever your final wishes, our considerate, thoughtful staff will be sure to help you arrange a personalized, affordable service.

Garrett-Sykes can assist your family in selecting the best cremation products such as an urn, casket, or burial vault.

Our experts can inform you of the various cremation selections available so you and your family make the right choices for your needs and budget.
