In the practice of cremation, we believe:

In dignity and respect in the care of human
remains, in compassion for the living who survive
them, and in the memorialization of the dead;

that a cremation authority should be responsible
for creating and maintaining an atmosphere of
respect at all times;

that the greatest care should be taken in the
appointment of crematory staff members, any of
whom must not, by conduct or demeanor, bring the
crematory or cremation into disrepute;

that cremation should be considered as
preparation for memorialization;

that the dead of our human society should be
memorialized through commemorative means
suitable to the survivors.
