Your loved one never leaves our care.

Cavin-Cook Funeral Home & Crematory and Serenity Aquamation is are dedicated to providing caring and personalized cremation and aquamation services to you and your family. 

The Cavin-Cook crematory is located on the same premises as Cavin-Cook Funeral Home and adheres to the highest ethical standards set forth by the Cremation Association of North America. Serenity Aquamation, our aquamation center which opened in 2024, is also located onsite and offers a gentle, water-based alternative to flame cremation. By operating our own private crematory and aquamation center, we can ensure your loved one never leaves our professional care. 

The choice if cremation or aquamation does not limit one’s options for personalized funeral services, final disposition and memorialization. 

A funeral, memorial or celebration of life service is an important step in working through the grief that follows the loss of a loved one. We can help you create a meaningful tribute that brings comfort to you, your family and friends.

The following cremation services can be modified to meet your family’s individual needs. Visitations can be added to any cremation or aquamation service except Direct Cremation/Aquamation.
