Respecting Tradition: Cultural Significance of Urns

For many, cremation isn’t just a practical option; it is a heritage full of tradition and emotion. Oliviera Funeral Homes recognizes the profound cultural significance that urns hold as a respectful way to preserve and honour a loved one’s ashes.

Ash urns are not vessels. They are heritage, love, and memory. Families across generations have utilized cremation urns to keep alive those who have died. Every urn holds the testament of a life lived and a love that endures.

Cremation urns come in all shapes and sizes. From high-tech to simple and elegant, there is a cremation urn to suit every personality and preference. Some urns can be personalized to reflect one’s values, beliefs, or family heritage. Other times, simple wood urns for ashes are the right choice as they are natural, warm, and timeless.

At Oliviera Funeral Homes, we have a complete range of urns available in Coquitlam. We realize that every family is unique. Some want something straightforward, and others want something a little more striking. Whatever you choose, we are here to assist you in deciding what makes you and your loved one comfortable.

Urns often hold a special place in rituals and memorials. They can be kept at home or in a special location. In all instances, an urn offers remembrance for the deceased and reassurance to the survivors.

Custom cremation urns enable families to pay respect to cultural heritage and treasured memories. With dignity of service and sensitivity of design, we assist families in building something meaningful.
