Create a meaningful funeral at Newcomer Funeral Homes - Dayton, OH

Families who choose cremation sometimes wonder whether they should have a funeral service. From our experience working with many families, we believe a ceremony can bring help and healing in a time of loss.

A ceremony can take many forms, from a funeral service with a casket held prior to cremation, a memorial service held after cremation, or a private family goodbye before cremation.

In times of loss, it can be helpful to rely on familiar traditions, such as a funeral service, to help us in the initial stages of grief and loss, as we adjust to life without the presence of someone we love.

We can assist you with planning a unique and meaningful funeral or memorial service for your loved one.
