When you are working on cremation services for a loved one, you might want to think about what they can wear for the service and what you want for them during those final moments.

Once you decide that you want to have cremation services in Upper Darby, PA for your loved one and you get the paperwork for that process ready, you know you are caring for their needs when they can no longer do so for themselves. But there are other decisions to make before the process is completed. You will have to decide, for example, what your loved one will wear during the cremation process. There are a variety of options and any can work well. Here are a few choices to consider.

Hospital Gown

If your loved one went through a long illness or passed on at the hospital, you can simply have them wear their hospital gown and go through cremation as soon as possible. You know they had a lot of medical procedures and you may simply not want to mess with them any further. You want them to be at peace and there’s nothing wrong with giving them that in whatever they happened to have on when they passed on.

Pajamas

Your loved one changed into pajamas the moment they hit the threshold of their home. They adored the comfort and now, they simply look like they are sleeping. You want comfort for them, even though you know they are no longer there. You can give the cremation provider a pair of their cozy pajamas and have them dressed in those for their cremation. It may bring comfort to you knowing they are in something so comfortable.

Dress Or Suit

If your loved one always wore their Sunday best for special occasions, and you feel like this is quite a special occasion itself, placing them in a dress or suit they owned or something new your purchased can feel like the right move. Perhaps you will get to visit them before the cremation process to say goodbye and you want them to look their best for that last moment. Or, you might feel like that’s what they would want for this occasion.

Favorite Attire

Perhaps your loved one always wore red because it was their favorite color. You never saw them without a baseball cap. Or they had on yoga pants at all times. Whatever their favorite things to wear might have been, that may be what you want to send them into cremation wearing. You know what they liked the most and you want their style to show, even in those last moments.

Nothing At All

 

Your loved one came into this world wearing nothing at all and there’s nothing wrong with sending them back out in the same manner. You may want to donate their clothing or keep it for a quilt or other things and that’s okay. Their dignity and modesty will not be harmed during the process.
