Placing the cremation urn permanently in a Columbarium. It is a room or simply a freestanding structure, usually located in a cemetery or church, wherein there are niches (recessed compartments) for placing urns containing cremation ashes. Thus, it provides a place of remembrance to visit and memorialize a deceased loved one, thereby helping the healing process of recovering from the loss. You may also include photographs, mementos, etc. to personalize the niche and commemorate the life of your loved one. Storage of cremated remains serves as a record for future generations, too. Apart from church grounds and cemeteries, columbaria may often be housed within mausoleums. Besides, they may be built either indoors or outdoors.
