ASSOCIATION CRÉMATISTE DE LA MAYENNE

Although cremation is experiencing significant progress in our country in general and in Mayenne in particular (18% of deaths in 2006, 30% in 2010), it still remains a taboo subject for many elderly people. This is due to religious reasons (the Catholic Church only permits it since 1963) but also because many false ideas are still circulating about it (more expensive! it is more complicated!). For more than 30 years (1979), the Crématiste Association of Mayenne has performed a mission of information and advice. It also ensures - and this is crucial - the execution of the testamentary provisions of which it is aware. In short, to know how to get rid of his body after his death, it is useful to contact the association chaired by Bernard Chevance since 2010.
