Cremation Options for Keyport Families
Cremation has become the choice many Keyport families make, and The Stone Chapel Poulsbo Mortuary provides and arranges every step with care. Direct cremation is available for families who want a simple, private process without a formal viewing beforehand. Many families instead choose cremation paired with a visitation, a memorial service, or a full funeral service in Keyport before cremation takes place, giving everyone a chance to gather first.
After cremation, cremated remains can be kept, buried, or placed in the columbarium at Cherry Grove Memorial Park, which shares our Foss Road address. Families who want an eco-conscious alternative can ask our team to arrange aquamation or terramation, gentler processes that some families prefer over traditional cremation.
Whatever path your family chooses, our team explains each option clearly, without pressure, so you can decide what feels right.
Why Keyport Families Choose The Stone Chapel Poulsbo Mortuary for Cremation
Cremation decisions deserve the same level of care as any other funeral arrangement, and our president, Russ Weeks, is a licensed Funeral Director, Embalmer, and Certified Crematory Operator (CFSP, CCO). That credential means the person guiding your family through cremation choices has direct, hands-on training in the process itself, not just the paperwork around it.
The Stone Chapel Poulsbo Mortuary is family-owned and part of the established Weeks' Funeral Homes group, serving North Kitsap communities including Keyport from our combined mortuary and cemetery location in Poulsbo. We also maintain a full green and eco-friendly service portfolio, including aquamation and terramation arranged through our team.
Because cremation can be arranged through our team and cremated remains can then be placed at Cherry Grove Memorial Park, a Keyport family isn't left coordinating between two separate businesses.
Green and Eco-Friendly Cremation Options
Some Keyport families are drawn to cremation alternatives that use fewer resources or leave a lighter footprint. Our team arranges green burial, aquamation, and terramation for families who want that choice, alongside traditional cremation and burial.
Aquamation uses water and a gentle alkaline process rather than flame, while terramation allows a natural, soil-based transformation over several weeks. Both are arranged and coordinated through The Stone Chapel Poulsbo Mortuary's team, and we're happy to walk through how each option works, what it involves, and how it compares to traditional cremation, in a phone call or in person.
About Keyport, Washington
Keyport is a small unincorporated community and census-designated place in Kitsap County, Washington, on the Keyport Peninsula where it meets Liberty Bay, just southeast of Poulsbo. The 2020 census recorded 576 residents. The community has long been tied to the U.S. Navy through the nearby Naval Base Kitsap - Keyport torpedo depot and the Naval Undersea Museum.
Washington was the first state in the country to legalize natural organic reduction, known as terramation, for human remains, with the law taking effect in 2020; aquamation is also legal here. That gives Keyport families in Kitsap County full legal access to these greener alternatives to traditional cremation, arranged through our Poulsbo team just a short drive away.
