How to avoid mistakes after losing a loved one
The death of a loved one is a very powerful event in our lives. An irreparable loss leaves an indelible mark that will mark us for the rest of our lives. With his departure, it is not only that person who leaves us physically, but also a part of us leaves with him. Our shared experiences, secrets and memories that this person carried of us fade away, and we are left grieving and saddened.
From the wide experience that distinguishes us for being a leading company in the field, in Bonita we have decided to offer you not only a series of articles for every moment that you go through or that concern the death. Also, in this article, we will guide you to avoid making some mistakes that will help you cope with grief in a better way.
Most common mistakes when losing a loved one
The moment of the death of your loved ones will leave you immobile and unable to react; as a first point it is important to be helped by friends or relatives to plan the funeral, but above all to provide the necessary support and not to fall apart.
Do not make hasty decisions: The passing of a loved one causes us to run behind decisions that should not be made lightly. Discuss the best funeral service provider for the deceased. It is important to keep in mind that, from the time of death until the hospital releases the body, you will have some time to consider the type of ceremony your loved one would have wanted.
Organization of documents and assets of the deceased: One of the most common mistakes is to try to organize the deceased’s belongings by room or to divide them item by item found. Ideally, it is best to organize by categories: documents, legal, clothing, valuable or affective goods. This will make it easier for you to divide the assets until you reach an agreement or find a will.
Do not punish yourself: The loss of our loved one is a situation of great trauma and stress. After the death happens, you will have the impulse to go to your family member’s home and arrange and separate their clothes or things that really are not a great need at first. If it is important that someone takes care of the pets -if you have them- or of the food that could rot. But you must be careful not to make decisions that could affect you psychologically and mentally.
Cancel the obligations and services that the deceased was paying: Once the death has occurred, you should not omit to cancel the public services such as: Electricity, gas, telephone and others, whenever the house is going to remain without inhabitants for a long period. In addition, in the event that the deceased was the beneficiary of any financial assistance from the state, he/she should notify the deceased immediately, since the bereaved will be responsible for returning this money.
Preserve yourself: The most important mistake is to leave ourselves in the background and we take ourselves out of focus, and at the same time we stop taking care of ourselves. You must give yourself room to express and let all your emotions flow; you must not feel fear or shame, it is to let the mourning happen and to be able to be with our senses on track to continue on the rails of our new life, as strong as possible.
From Bonita we wish to accompany you not only in giving your loved one the ceremony and farewell that he/she surely deserved. But also, to give you the tools to cope with the journey of grief, to go through it together so that you can continue along the path of life, honoring your loved ones.

How is the cremation process of a body?
It is likely that if you are not familiar with the cremation process, it may seem like a practice you do not want to go near. However, these methods are one of the most dignified ways to celebrate a life that has been lived to the fullest.
For this reason it is important that you know what are the traditions of cremation and know the step by step in which this process is performed.
Where did the cremation ritual begin?
Cremation is a tradition that has been used for hundreds of years. Even the Romans honored their warriors with this ritual.
In recent years, cremation has become extremely popular and much more chosen over conventional burials. This may be due to two fundamental factors: cost and time.
Whereas burials require a lot of money and a lot of paperwork, which the bereaved cannot go through with much coherence due to the deep pain they are feeling. Cremations not only reduce costs, but also make the process much simpler.
At Boinita we are dedicated to the cremation service, where we not only guarantee the utmost respect and care for your loved one, but we also facilitate the organization and all the paperwork. We also have the most affordable prices in the market.
Our company will take care of everything that is needed so that you, your family and friends can focus only on celebrating the life of your departed loved one.
How is the body prepared for cremation?
Cremations are the most respectful and honorable farewells, since by putting the body in high temperatures, what we will do is to return them to their natural state. Then those ashes can be scattered in the place that our loved one would have wished, or they can be kept in the warmth of their own home.
What is the step-by-step cremation process like?
Since the death of the family member, there is a whole process that is quick and concludes with the delivery of the ashes to the bereaved.
Data collection: First, the service provider will collect all the deceased’s information: from personal data to the causes of death.
Preparation of the remains: If the deceased had implants or any type of element or device foreign to the body, they will be removed to avoid any inconvenience. The clean body, as it arrives in the world, is the one that is already prepared to enter the chamber.
Entrance to the cremation chamber: The cremation chamber is a rigid cubicle where by means of combustion the remains of the deceased are reduced to ashes. It is important before finalizing the service with the provider you choose to clear all doubts about the final costs involved in this process. Inside the chamber, the bodies are never exposed to flames, this is a fallacious thought that does not correspond to reality. After 3 hours, the ashes of the deceased will be ready to leave for the final resting place.
Delivery of the ashes: The ashes are returned in the urn that you may have previously purchased or in a temporary urn. Temporary urns are made of plastic or cardboard and can be useful if you plan to scatter your ashes quickly.
Simple cremation has a process where at every step and every moment your loved one is treated with the respect he or she deserves.
From our company, we have the experience and human conditions necessary to provide an excellent service. But above all, respecting both the deceased and the pain of the bereaved, providing a service of great human quality.

How to choose a funeral home?
The truth is that the process of selecting a funeral home is neither simple nor pleasant. However, when the time comes to select one, especially if the death has been sudden, it will bring us more stress than we are already suffering.
Funeral services, as much as we may not be able to see at the time we are choosing, are an industry. As such, they have a lucrative purpose and, in order not to fall into overpricing and scams, it is better to be aware of some points so as not to suffer economic damage.
Tips for choosing a funeral home
Many funeral services are of excellence and work with great respect for the bodies of the deceased; however, they have no compassion for those who remain, the living. For this reason, from our company and our experience, we will give you some tips so that you are informed and can give your loved one the service he/she deserves and do not fall into price scams.
Contact at least 3 funeral homes in your area: Find out what type of service they offer, their scope, prices and facilities. In the case of going to the funeral home in person, do it in the company of a friend who can help you ask questions and clear up doubts that, perhaps you, because of the moment you are going through, may not be able to glimpse. Another important point to check is the funeral home’s website, where you will be able to find the specific service and the prices they offer.
Check the funeral home’s rating: Whether through friends, family and the Internet, you can get an idea of what the funeral home’s experiences have been like. In this way, you will know that you can count on a service of quality and excellence. Thanks to the Internet, this point is greatly simplified, because many funeral homes now have user reviews and experiences that will help you make the right decision.
Ask for the quotation in writing: In line with the first point, and in order not to fall into unstipulated overpricing, ask for the quotation in writing. This way they can be caught off guard with a point that has exceeded what was agreed upon.
In the event that it is your desire, hire a funeral home that offers comprehensive services: Ignorance in this case makes us realize that in this industry there is a lot to consider. When a funeral service is contracted, it is assumed that it has all the services that we assume are contemplated. However, this is not the case and it is important that you detail at the time of contracting the service everything you want.
Do not omit when hiring a funeral home that is in accordance with your religious beliefs: it is important to mention that there is a possibility that a funeral home may not be able to respect all religious beliefs. For this reason, before performing the service, make sure that it respects your religious beliefs as well as those of the deceased.
In the traumatic moment of the loss of a loved one, we have to make a decision that is not easy at all: to choose where we will perform the funeral ritual.
Although this task is not easy at all, from Boinita we offer you our experience and professionalism so that you can fulfill your wishes, and that of your family so that the last goodbye can be done in the way that will make your loved one go in peace.
At Boinita we can take care of the cremation of your loved one. Then, once we have returned the ashes to you, you can arrange a simple memorial service that is perfect for you and your family.

How should we support a person who has lost a family member in times of pandemic?
We are living in a difficult time where we are far from our loved ones, as a result of the pandemic generated by Covid-19. In normal times, coping with the loss of a family member is a difficult and painful time. Unfortunately, in these times of confinement and due to sanitary protocols, in many cases, we are limited in our accompaniment with the relatives of the deceased.
Going through the grief of the loss of a loved one, coupled with confinement due to the health crisis, could generate great anxiety and fear. Funeral services have been modified in order to avoid becoming a source of contagion or transmission of the virus.
There is nothing more difficult to face than the irreparable loss of a loved one. Funerals can be a moment where the relatives of the deceased can begin to build up after having lived through one of the most traumatic moments in life: Death.
The social distancing proposed by the ministries of health and even the WHO (World Health Organization) makes it impossible for us to offer a hug and accompany our friends and family at this painful time.
How can we accompany family members in times of “stay at home”?
Although we are not currently able to reach out and give a hug to the person who is grieving the death of a loved one, there are some steps we can take in the face of such an eventuality.
The digital era can help us a lot to ease the pain of the loss of a family member. One of the ways to accompany and support the person who is facing grief is to organize a videoconference, where, in addition, we can share photos, audios, writings and stories of the deceased.
Social media, too, can be a friendly place to leave your condolences. Organize that all friends and those who wish to give words of affection do so at the same time through the various social networks to accompany the suffering of the family member.
If there is someone in the group who knows about programming or web construction, they could create a blog where each of the family and friends can leave a story about the deceased. Reading this to family members will be a great support.
Be empathetic to the pain the deceased’s family member is going through.
Sadly, when a loved one passes away, we must face a winding road where feelings are constantly fluctuating. Being accompanied makes us be in touch with reality, coping with pain in a less destructive way.
The social distancing caused by the pandemic means that we do not have the physical contact that fills us with an embrace of containment.
However, when we learn that a friend has experienced the loss of a family member, we should not miss the opportunity to call them and express our respect while letting them know that we are with them in their grief.
Whatever we decide to do to accompany the relatives of the deceased, just make the decision and do it.
The social distancing that has been imposed on us by the exceptional circumstances of Covid-19, make us unable to give a hug at this traumatic moment.
However, social networks and all the communication channels that exist today give us the possibility of being closer to the person who is grieving.
Let us accompany people who have suffered loss without feeling uncomfortable, empathizing with that suffering and pain will make us more human and we will be able to build a new life together, after going through an irreparable loss.

How to close accounts after the death of a loved one?
When a family member dies, our life stops, there is a great pause that makes us walk a dark path that ends after the burial. We will probably sleep for a few hours and wake up realizing that the world has continued to turn.
One of the issues that has followed its normal course of life has been the deceased’s bills and invoices to be paid. Some of the accounts that are starting to make the mailbox more robust are: credit cards, tax charges, municipal taxes, utility bills, student loans, etc.
It is there, when you return home with a mountain of bills to pay from your loved one who has departed, and you lay your head back on your pillow and definitely feel on the verge of mental collapse.
Tips for closing the accounts of a loved one
Our company is constantly experiencing stories, problems and we have heard of many situations that we, as social beings, go through in a cyclical manner. From Boinita we want to share with you some tips so that you can overcome this obstacle without getting overwhelmed in the attempt.
- Keep the documents always at hand: One way to start closing the deceased’s accounts is to wait until you have the death certificate, which clearly specifies the date of death. There are many companies that do not request this document, however, in the event that they do, it is always preferable to have it at hand.
- Don’t wait for the bills to arrive, do a review of the possible debts that the deceased might have: If we are talking about an average citizen, he will surely have from his subscriber service on his mobile, such as prepaid, apps like Spotify or Amazon Prime and even subscriptions to newspapers or magazines. One way to start closing all these accounts that could be open and continue to incur an increase is to make a mental list. Once our list has been generated, we will be able to cancel what is needed in a more organized way.
- Make major cancellations, among other things, in writing: While this is not necessary in most cases, sending a written note with a copy of the death certificateThe credit card will provide you with the assurance that you will not incur any type of extra charge that you may want to charge to that credit card. Even with this note, you will be guaranteeing that the deceased will not be a victim of identity theft. Yes, as you have read, identity theft is more common with the data of deceased persons than with the data of living persons.
Life has nothing more painful than the death of a loved one. With death, our lives begin to experience emotional earthquakes that never seem to end. In any case, you should not let yourself be defeated by pain and anguish; you will have to go through situations such as the ones we have developed in this article: The cancellations of your obligations.
This step of the post mortem process is inevitable, as it is very rare for a person to pass away with all their accounts up to date, isn’t it? But if you can get organized, you will surely be able to complete this phase without feeling on the verge of helplessness.

How much does it cost to spread ashes at sea in Mexico?

Scattering ashes at sea has become increasingly popular among Mexicans. Many consider this type of ceremony to be much more natural, beautiful and relaxing for their loved ones compared to a traditional burial.

To scatter the cremated remains of their loved one at sea, family and friends board the yacht and travel to the desired location. Upon arrival, the captain will place the boat in a stable position. At that point the ceremony and tribute can begin. The ceremony can range from prayers, moving remarks, singing and even family members reciting poetry.

Then family and friends often throw flowers or even a bouquet along with the biodegradable urn to create a ceremony area. Then the captain can circle the area while family and friends take pictures and say goodbye for the last time.

Laws and Regulations

For the dispersion of ashes certain conditions must be met in order to be as environmentally friendly as possible: the use of natural flowers and wreaths; notification to Semarnat; ensuring that ashes are scattered at least three nautical miles from the beach; and using a biodegradable urn..

The laws and regulations for scattering ashes at sea are quite soft compared to burials. However, it must comply with some guidelines of the Environmental Agency (Semarnat), for example:

While the ash itself does not affect water quality, do not disperse any non-biodegradable elements. For example, wreaths and personal items may contain plastic or metal parts that can harm wildlife or create litter.
Spread the ashes in a place away from buildings and where people swim.
Many people do not care about the rules and scatter wherever they or the deceased wishes. Although we do not approve, it is doubtful that patrols are looking for people dumping ashes in the wrong places. Of course, that is at your own discretion.

The benefits of spreading ashes from a yacht include:

benefits of scattering ashes from a yacht

Total privacy.
You are totally surrounded by a beautiful view.
The colors are white and blue. They help to create a relaxed and positive atmosphere.
Celebration of the ceremony with friends and family only.
Dispersion at sea has infinite possibilities.
The ceremony is about saying goodbye and creating an eternal memory of the release of the person you love.

One of the benefits of scattering ashes at sea, which you don’t get with a standard funeral, is that it gives you more time to think about how you can express how much your loved one means to you. There are no particular rules for the ceremony of dispersal at sea.

Tips

Consider how many people will attend the ceremony when deciding on the boat. Be sure to discuss any special requests with your company beforehand to make sure they can accommodate your plans.
Beware the wind: one of the most common stories told about scattering ashes at sea is the family opening the urn to scatter the ashes, only to have the wind blow them back to the guests. It is often difficult to predict exactly which direction the wind will come from. This problem is eliminated by using a sealed salt urn.
Be aware of rain or storms, you may face other difficulties such as waves and strong winds, which could hinder the experience.
The summer months are a little quieter and therefore ideal for those who may suffer from motion sickness.
The water urns are designed to float smoothly, which makes the whole process much easier.
It is important to dress appropriately and be prepared for a bumpy ride. Boat decks can become slippery and keep in mind that it is often colder and windier at sea, so be sure to bring a sweater and jacket. If you or your assistants are prone to motion sickness, take appropriate medication beforehand.

Is a funeral home really necessary if a family member dies?
Do you need a funeral home if a family member passes away?
In short, yes. We often hear this question from families who choose direct cremation for their loved ones. Perhaps there is still some attachment to the traditional idea of a funeral and the work of a funeral home: embalming, carrying the coffin to the church and to the cemetery for burial.
So, since a direct or simple cremation does not involve any of these things, it makes sense to ask whether or not a funeral home is necessary.
Cremation is a form of disposition
The key word is “readiness”. In the eyes of the law, cremation is considered a form of disposition like burial, perhaps even more so considering the fact that cremation is irreversible.
Funeral homes are licensed to supervise the disposition of any person who has died. And they help with all governmental procedures..
For the same reasons that a family cannot bury a loved one without a funeral home, neither can they take their loved one to the crematory without a funeral home. And as you can imagine, there is much more to the process than being present at the cremation.
Your funeral home is responsible for:
- Complete and obtain the death certificatetogether with medical professionals.
- Obtain the necessary permits for cremation according to state law.
- Obtain specific written authorizations from family members so that everyone is legally protected.
- Work directly with the crematorium to ensure that its operating standards meet the highest possible criteria.
Funeral homes help to prepare the tribute
It is important to remember that an important part of a funeral home’s job is to help your family prepare an appropriate tribute for your loved one after cremation. For many people who are used to the traditional order of events, this probably seems a bit backwards.
There are many families who choose to hold a funeral service at a date after the cremation that is more convenient for them, and this provides a greater opportunity to carefully personalize the tribute and involve all who wish to participate.
This way it is more economical since the family organizes the event and only selects what is really important. This type of funeral service is known as a humanistic funeral.
We have designed Boinita with your family’s independence and economy in mind. It is the only way to complete a cremation for your loved one without using a traditional funeral home.
Your family has control of how to make the following tribute. We believe that an option such as ours is long overdue.

How is a body prepared for Cremation?
When someone passes away, only there are two ways to treat the body: 1. Can be buried; Can be cremated.
Cremation is becoming increasingly popular and that has been the trend in recent years and looks set to continue to grow. So, people are choosing cremation over burial and one thing we want to explain is how a body is prepared for cremation.
These are the steps of a Cremation
Cremated remains are commonly referred to as “ashes”, however, in reality, they consist mainly of bone fragments. It is important to mention that the cremated remains of the body are mixed with the remains of the container, as well as with any other by-products of the incineration.
Cremation produces 1.5 to 4 kilograms of remains, depending on the size of the body and the process used by the crematory.
The actual cremation process consists of five basic steps:
- The deceased is identified and proper authorization is obtained from the government.
- The body is prepared and placed in a suitable container.
- The container with the body is moved to the cremation chamber.
- After cremation, the remaining metal is removed and the remains are ground.
- The “ashes” are transferred to a temporary container or urn.
Today we will focus on step number 2
How is a body prepared for cremation?
The body is usually bathed, cleaned and dressed prior to the identification process. The body is not embalmed, unless a public viewing is requested.
Then, jewelry or other items that you would like to keep are removed. Any medical devices and/or prostheses that are mechanical or contain batteries are also removed.. This is to avoid reaction during the cremation process. Elements such as pins and screws remain in place.
There are special caskets made for cremation or a simple cardboard box can also be used. The key rule is that the container must be strong enough to hold a person and must be burnable.
The body is then placed with the box in the crematory oven, which is an industrial oven that is large enough to hold a body. The fire-resistant bricks are aligned in the chamber and can withstand temperatures up to 2000 degrees. Modern cremation furnaces follow strict environmental and air quality standards. Natural gas, propane or diesel fuel the furnaces.
After cremation, the remains are cooled. A person inspects for metal debris and removes it by hand or with strong magnets..
We refer to cremated remains as ashes, but what remains are pieces of bone. After cremation, a special processor crushes the fragments.
The ashes are transferred to a temporary container or cremation urn which will be given to family or friends.

Where should I place a Cremation Urn in my home?
“I never thought I would be the type of person to display an urn in my living room. Yet, here it is.”
For someone, visualizing the urn of a loved one comes naturally.
Of course, I should have a special place in my home, but Do I want it to be outdoors for all to see? Should I be in my room? Or hidden in a closet out of sight, so I can get on with my life? How close is too close?
Here are some thoughts that may help you find the right place for your loved one’s urn.
You don’t have to stay in the same place.
Like all belongings, urns are subject to movement, renewal, changes in circumstances and your mood. Unlike most belongings, urns carry a great emotional charge, making them seem much more than an object.
That’s why most people worry about finding the ‘perfect’ place for an urn. Pressing himself to decide, once and for all, where such a unique and special artifact should go is indicative of his pain. Keep in mind that it is normal to feel awkward with the urn, especially at first.
Put your urn where it makes sense.
Although it is difficult, try to separate your feelings about the urn long enough to consider where you would put it if it did not contain the ashes of a loved one. Depending on its size, color and the aesthetics of your home, there is probably an obvious place for your urn.
Depending on the size of your urn, you can place it on a side table, shelf, window sill, shelf. There are also no rules about which room an urn should go to. I have known people who display their urn in their bedroom, living room, dining room and even in the bathroom. There are no rules!
An urn does not have to be seen to be meaningful.
Incorporating an urn into your home decor may not be for you. It’s okay not to want a reminder of a death in your space.
Store the urn in a safe place: a closet or in a secure storage container (I suggest something waterproof) should be fine. With the urn stored somewhere where it is out of sight and protected, you can visit your loved one’s remains whenever you want.
Even if you have decided to keep your loved one’s remains in an urn, you do not need to leave them there forever. You may decide to bury it in a garden, scatter the ashes in the sea or a forest, or buy a niche.
If you’ve tried a few places in your home and find that the presence of the urn doesn’t feel right, there’s no rule that says you can’t change your mind. Give it to a loved one who will appreciate it. A clean and empty urn can be donated or sold.
Accept your mixed feelings.
It is natural to feel that there is no place respectful enough to keep your loved one’s cremains. Because an urn can represent so much, it can seem like a big decision.
In fact, you have more flexibility and options than you can imagine. There is no shame in any decision you make regarding storing or displaying your urn. Especially in the weeks following their death, some people find that storing an urn out of sight is an act of self-preservation. Others need it close by. Choose your own path and remember that this decision is not permanent.
Finding the right place
It is a strange presence to have the urn as it moves through the pain. There are times when you want her close; others she has to be out of sight. The final task to be accomplished in bereavement is to“find a way to maintain a connection with the person who died while embarking on your own life.” Keeping your loved one’s urn in your home can be a way to establish this lasting connection, during periods of grief and beyond.

Being buried with my pets’ ashes, how do I fix this?
How can I be buried with the ashes of my dogs or cats?
Many people would like to be cremated and have their ashes combined with the ashes of their pets who have passed away before so they can be together again. But how is this type of cremation service arranged?
Talk to the funeral home or crematory.
The easiest thing to do is to let your family know your wishes and when the time comes they only have to inform the funeral home or crematory. They would all be more than happy to mix the ashes if that is what the family wants.
We are not aware of any case of refusal, especially if the request is sincere and requested with love.
Designate a trusted family member
Now, there is another way to accomplish this without involving a funeral home. Designate a trusted friend or family member (who is not squeamish) with your pets’ ashes, and have them designated as the person who will pick it up after it is cremated.
The urns are easy to open if you have a screwdriver and the bags inside are plastic. Your friend can open all the urns, mix them up and bury them all in any place he wishes.
Just be very careful with the place you choose (especially if it is private), because some places have fines if you are caught scattering ashes.
Collect all ballot boxes
Another option is to simply gather the urns of all your pets next to yours in a place of your choice; either in a piece of furniture in the house, buried in the garden or in a niche.
In Mexico we are fortunately allowed to do whatever we want with cremated remains.
The size of the ballot box could come into play at some point. Depending on the size of the dogs or cats you are talking about as the amount of ash can be drastically different.
In short mixing your ashes with those of your pets is not a problem at all, finding a suitable place to bury them could be the challenge.
“It just gives me a sense of comfort, knowing that I can be with my pets after I’m gone.”? ?
