Use of Equipment & Staff for Graveside Service

$350

A memorial is a permanent remembrance of a life lived; a place for mourners (not just family) may visit for emotional support. We’ll coordinate a Graveside Service for burial or cremation with the cemetery of your choosing.  If there were prearrangements in place for your loved one, you will need to touch base with the cemetery to ensure everything is settled.

Witness Placement

Starting at $125

Witness cremation offers the family the chance to be present with their loved one as the cremation commences. This is a basic service giving family the opportunity to witness the placing of their loved ones cremated remains either in the ground or in a niche, or it allows for burial families to witness the lowering of the casket into the ground.


*Disclaimer: We utilize the crematorium at Einan’s at Hillcrest - Kennewick, we must follow established guidelines. You will only be allowed to stay until the cremation begins. Also, be aware that Einan’s has a crematorium schedule, and CODA will select an available time. In the event that Einan’s has to reschedule, CODA will notify the family.
