Are you looking for a permanent resting place for a cremation urn in your care?
Come to our inaugural Scatter Day on Saturday, October 5th from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Cheatham Hill Memorial Park
1861 Dallas Highway SW, Marietta
We will help you place the cremated remains of your loved one in a beautiful, permanent resting place – for FREE.
Why host a Scatter Day? Most families have at least one cremation urn in their care – and don't know what to do with it. They no longer want to store the urn in their home but aren't aware of any other options. At Scatter Day, we'll introduce you to permanent cremation memorial options at our cemetery that will give your loved one a beautiful final resting place.
“Scatter Day will give families the opportunity to come to Cheatham Hill Memorial Park with their loved one’s cremated remains and take that final step to closure,” said Christine Hunsaker, owner of Southern Cremations & Funerals which offers two generations of experience in the funeral and cemetery services industries. “Families hold on to the remains often because they’re not ready to let go, but in other cases, it may be because they’re unaware of other options. Our goal is to offer a way to memorialize a passed family member in a peaceful and dignified manner.”
Cremated remains will rest in a beautiful ossuary which is an underground receptacle where ashes are placed with those of others. If desired, the loved one’s name can be etched and displayed on the cenotaph for a small fee. Please note that an Authorization and Acknowledgement Form must be completed prior to the placement of cremated remains (see the link above). Copies of a Certificate of Cremation and Cremation Permit are also required.
