What do you send when someone passes away and they are cremated?

Do you still send flowers? He's having a viewing Wednesday night and a memorial service Thursday morning. What gesture would be appropriate since he's not being buried?

You can still send flowers, my grandfather was cremated and there were several arrangements that were set around his picture.
Reply:You can still send flowers, since I've seen that they set the flowers by their picture at the alter instead of on top of a coffin.
Reply:If you know the family personally I'd ask, elderly people especially appreciate the thought but really need the money that is spent on flowers, wives with small children also could use money in times like this. So many want to express their feelings at this time but don't know what to do other than send flowers and/or a card. If you know the family or know someone that is close to them ask a few questions about "their" needs or desires. Some have a PO Box to send money to while others make donations to a charity. You might be surprised at what your $35.00 basket of flowers will buy towards food that is greatly needed with extra people in the home at this time.
Reply:Yes you can still send flowers, a plant or even a fruit basket. Just because there's not an actually burial doesn't mean that the other things change.
