BETHEL Brothers Morticians have announced the installation and commissioning of a state-of-the-art cremation facility at its funeral home site on Nassau Street.
The newly installed crematorium was recently blessed by Father Dwight Bowe.
The funeral home, one of the oldest in the Bahamas, was established in 1943 by Marcus Bethel Sr. It has been at the vanguard of professional development and service.
Owen Bethel, current president and CEO of the company, said that cremation facility is another step forward in the provision of community-minded and compassionate service.
"The new facility is technologically advanced and eco-friendly, so as to ensure no fumes or emissions (escape) into the surrounding residential community.
Also, given the limited land space for cemeteries on the islands, a growing population and a growing acceptance of cremation as a form of both respectful and economical burial, it was considered timely to instal the facility," said Mr Bethel
