The local funeral director helped me and my kids have a memorial for my husband. I have in mind getting advice from the funeral home who took care of the cremation for my friend. If I make the plans, I'll have it in Cleveland where she lived and worked. I'm in Marietta, Oh, the opposite end of the state.
