Modern cremation process
The cremation occurs in a cremator that is housed within a crematorium and comprises one or more furnaces. A cremator is an industrial furnace that is able to generate temperatures of 870–980 °C (1,600–1,800 °F) to ensure disintegration of the corpse.
Modern crematory fuels include oil, natural gas, propane.
Modern cremators automatically monitor their interior to tell when the cremation process is complete. The time required for cremation varies from body to body, and, in modern furnaces, like Central Cremation Services Athens GA, the process may be as fast as one hour per 50 kg (100 lb) of body weight.
Cremation is the combustion, vaporization, and oxidation of cadavers to basic chemical compounds, such as gases, ashes and mineral fragments retaining the appearance of dry bone. Cremation may serve as a funeral or post-funeral rite as an alternative to the interment of an intact dead body in a coffin or casket. Cremated remains (also known as "cremains" or simply "ashes"), which do not constitute a health risk, may be buried or interred in memorial sites or cemeteries, or they may be retained by relatives and dispersed in various ways. Cremation is an alternative in place of burial or other forms of disposal in funeral practices. Some families prefer to have the deceased present at the funeral with cremation to follow; others prefer that the cremation occur prior to the funeral or memorial service.

Estate Planning in Athens Georgia
The Benefits of Estate Planning.
As we move through life, we often set aside those tasks that make us consider our inevitable end — wills, trusts, funeral planning. But estate planning in Athens GA. ensures that any assets (your “estate”) are easily transferred to your heirs, allowing them to avoid courts and extra costs that could ultimately diminish your estate. Estate planning also means that your heirs are not left to determine who should get or pay what, because you have left a clear plan in place. Here’s a quick look at basic information about estate planning, and why it is so important any where including Athens GA.
What is an estate?
Your “estate” consists of all property owned by you at the time of your death, such as:
- Real estate
- Bank accounts
- Stocks, bonds and other securities
- Life insurance policies
- Personal property such as automobiles, jewelry and other personal possessions
Why you need to have a plan?
Estate planning involves making plans for the transfer of your estate — regardless of its value — after your death. Estate planning is something that should be done when you’re in good health and you are free of emotional stress. Your estate plan will ensure that your financial goals are met after you die, passing on your assets as you have assigned them. It can also assign guardians to minor children — a critically important factor for parents. In addition to your will or trust, an estate plan will include an assignment of power of attorney (someone to make decisions on your behalf should you be incapacitated) and your advance health care directive. For some, a trust may make more sense than a will; a trust can allow for a more seamless disbursement of assets, especially for those who have a surviving spouse and/or children of any age.
How to get started.
While there are many online options for creating living trusts and wills, it may be smarter to get at least preliminary counsel from an estate attorney or other knowledgeable professional in Athens GA. There are accredited estate planners (who may be attorneys, CPAs, registered investment advisors and more) who are part of national organizations who monitor professional standards.

The law isn’t always fair, it can’t intuit your wishes, and it shouldn’t be relied on in lieu of a will or living trust. Nor should you assume your loved ones know what your wishes are. Taking the time to put an estate plan into place in Athens GA, regardless of your age or assets, will save countless hours later for your family or heirs.
