Years ago, there was one factor that kept many families from considering cremation when they were planning a funeral: People used to believe that if they chose cremation they could not have a funeral service, or if they did, it wouldn’t be as meaningful as it might be with traditional burial. When you choose Lake Ridge Chapel and Memorial Designers, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Being a part of the diverse community of Lubbock, our ability to personalize a funeral service with the individual’s culture, values, and personality is critical to our ability to serve your family. When families come to Lake Ridge, they discover that cremation is, indeed, a dignified and meaningful form of memorialization.

As traditions change, we develop new and meaningful ways to honor and commemorate our loved ones. Our attitudes toward what is “appropriate” during a funeral become much broader, and that means we can offer families new choices and new forms of tribute and remembrance. However, families who have lost a loved one sometimes find the choices a bit bewildering. They might also need help sparking creative ideas. Our expert team can help.

In the past, some people also viewed cremation only as a way to save money on funeral costs. But now, families who do choose cremation are discovering that dignified and touching services are available to help them honor and commemorate their loved one. When you choose cremation, you may still have a visitation, memorial service, traditional funeral service, graveside observance, and many other comforting and healing rituals. And you can personalize cremation services with vaults, caskets, and urns that bear emblems and engravings denoting religious affiliation, hobbies and special interests, and military or civic service.

You can trust that we accept nothing less than excellence at Lake Ridge Chapel and Memorial Designers. As part of our Cremation With Confidence™ guarantee, we follow a rigorous 10-step process for every family we serve. Our secure, on-site crematory is reserved for the families we serve and outfitted with the latest security cameras so you can be sure you receive your loved one’s cremated remains. We always ensure our families that while the cremation process takes place, our paramount concern is preserving the dignity of the person who has died.

When you choose cremation, ask these important questions:

1.) What kind of memorial services are available?

2.) What are the choices for personalization and telling the story of the life that has been lived?

3.) Most importantly, what measures does the funeral home take to guard the dignity of the process? We assure you of our unwavering commitment to preserving the dignity of your loved one.

Lake Ridge Chapel and Memorial Designers is and will remain the most trusted funeral home servicing Lubbock families. And when it comes to cremation, that’s the best assurance of all.
