What does the cremation process consist upon? Cremation is the process by which through heat and evaporation the body is reduced to its basic elements. In other words, a process of complete dehydration is carried out, resulting in bone particles which chemical composition consists of the same minerals that the human body contains and that are commonly found in the earth's crust in greater or lesser proportion. Calcium stands out with more than 40% and sodium follows with 1.18% and other minerals in lesser proportion.

We have seen with pleasure that our efforts have not been in vain; cremation has increased in Puerto Rico by 1000% and this is due to the fact that the people have decided to reevaluate the traditions that benefit just a few and have been convinced that the "Christian burial" can be properly replaced by the "CHRISTIAN CREMATION".
