Do you wish to be cremated when you pass away? Aside from getting hold of a cremation plan, you will need a place to store cremated remains. The Catholic Church, as I have heard, does not really recommend that you keep the cremated remains – or the cremains – at home as the home is not the final resting place. I guess having the cremated remains put in an appropriate place is also symbolic of “letting go.”

You may want to then check out or inquire at Elysium Gardens, a columbarium located at 277 E. Rodriguez Sr. Avenue, Quezon City, Philippines. This is near St. Luke’s Medical Center. Elysium Gardens offers indoor vaults, a chapel, and an airconditioned family room which can be used for memorial services.

For inquiries in Metro Manila, Philippines, you can call 414 2559, 410 5398 or 722 8496.
