Cremation Services
Our private, on-site crematory sets Walker Funeral Homes & Crematory apart. When we opened our cremation facility in 2008, we were the first funeral home in Northwest Ohio to offer families this unique service option to guarantee a more secure and dignified cremation. Our licensed professionals will walk you through every step of the cremation process in detail to ensure you feel comfortable trusting us with the care of your loved one. Our cremation experts oversee every cremation from start to finish so you can feel confident choosing us as your cremation provider.
Cremation Options
Cremation can be a thoughtful and respectful way to celebrate the life of someone special. When your loved one comes into our care, they are treated with the utmost attention and compassion. Because we operate our own crematory, your loved one remains with us throughout every step of the process, giving you peace of mind and ensuring consistent, dedicated care.

Choosing cremation provides a variety of memorialization options for your family to commemorate your loved one. You may wish to arrange a funeral service, a
graveside burial, or a scattering of the cremated remains in a special location. Our caring staff members can advise you in selecting a beautiful urn or piece of keepsake jewelry to honor your loved one.

Traditional Funeral Service Followed by Cremation
Many families find meaning and beauty in a traditional funeral service. With a traditional service combined with cremation, you can still choose to have a final viewing, visitation or wake, and a funeral service. However, instead of in-ground burial, the funeral will be followed by cremation. Depending on your wishes, the cremated remains may be either returned to your family for storage in an urn, scattered, or interred in a columbarium. This option will include fees for the funeral services as well as the fees associated with the cremation itself.
Memorial Service
The memorial service can be held in our chapel, a church, or any other venue the family chooses. We work with our families to design a service that honors their loved one with stories, music, or scripture. We also have life celebrants who lead services where clergy may not be chosen. Our celebrants are trained in creating experiences that help start the healing process.
Graveside
A graveside or committal service is typically held immediately following the funeral service but it can also be a small intimate gathering of those closest to you.
