From
the days of prehistoric man, Bronze Age, Grecian period, Roman Empire
till the present time, cremation has been practiced for long. The
remains are burned and disposed of in different means as decided by
the deceased and/or family. But for Catholics, this form of ceremony
was disfavored because it is believed to be pagan, and the Jewish
culture prefers entombment.
Today,
cremation is already accepted by Catholics as the need to keep up
with modern times arises. Changes in culture and ethnic origins
have also contributed to its acceptance.
Funeraria
Paz
now offers crematory services, on call 24 hours a day. The two crematorium
units can process up to six cremations in eight hours.
