    Are people embalming less because cremation is increasing in popularity?

      Yes. The places I worked had about 80% of clients choosing cremation. I assume it’s mostly a cost decision. Cremation does not require a casket or a cemetery plot, which are two very expensive items.

        Even if I could afford it I’d feel bad taking up the land.
