Frequently Asked
Questions
1. What is a columbarium, and how does it work?
A columbarium is a permanent structure that contains small compartments, called niches, designed to hold cremation urns. Each niche can be personalized with engravings, bronze plaques, or decorative fronts. Families often choose columbariums because they provide a dignified, secure, and lasting place to visit and reflect.
2. Can I choose the location of my columbarium niche?
Yes. Based on availability, you can select from different sections or levels within the columbarium. Some families prefer eye-level niches for easy access, while others choose locations that are grouped together for family members. Our staff will guide you through all available options.
3. Are cremation memorials permanent?
Yes. Cremation memorials such as niches, garden memorials, and private family areas are constructed with durable materials like granite and bronze to ensure long-lasting preservation. At Midway Memorial Gardens, we maintain these areas year-round to guarantee they remain beautiful and secure for generations.
4. Can we personalize the service or memorial?
Absolutely. Personalization options include engraved names and dates, bronze plaques, etched artwork, custom monuments, and decorative landscaping. Whether you want a simple inscription or a fully customized design, we’ll help you create a tribute that reflects your loved one’s life and legacy.
5. What happens if I move or my plans change?
We understand that circumstances can change. If you relocate or need to adjust your arrangements, our team will work with you to review your options. In many cases, plans can be transferred or updated to ensure your wishes are honored and your family’s needs are met.
Most cremation memorials are capable of being relocated without disturbing the cremated remains at all.
