    A Natural Return to the Earth

    At Endswell, we believe in honoring the natural cycle of life. Our green burial services offer a meaningful way for your loved one to return to the earth with minimal impact on the environment. 

    For families who seek a simpler, more eco-conscious approach, green burial provides a peaceful and sustainable option that reflects a deep respect for nature.

    Our green burial services allow you to honor your loved one in a natural setting without the use of harmful chemicals or non-biodegradable materials. 

    Endswell Funeral Home is committed to offering families the opportunity to choose a burial option that is gentle on both the earth and the heart.

    A Thoughtful Approach to Honoring Life

    In times of loss, it can be difficult to make decisions that align with personal values and beliefs. Many families are now seeking alternatives to traditional burials that prioritize sustainability and simplicity. 

    Green burial is a natural choice for those who wish to avoid the use of embalming fluids, metal caskets, and concrete vaults

    Instead, your loved one is laid to rest in a biodegradable shroud or natural casket, allowing their body to return to the earth in a way that nurtures the surrounding environment.

    Our green burial services offer a dignified and environmentally friendly solution that provides comfort in knowing your loved one is contributing to the preservation of the natural world.

    Step 3:

    Coordination with Cemetery

    We work closely with local green burial cemeteries like Bluestem Conservation Cemetery to arrange a peaceful resting place for your loved one.

    Step 4:

    Burial

    Step 5:

    Documentation

    We handle all paperwork, including death certificates, and notify the necessary authorities, so you can focus on healing.

    “Hunter and the Endswell team made my mother’s passing so much less complicated and painful than I’d been led to believe it would be. Hunter communicated everything clearly and respectfully while being genuinely warm and kind. The whole process allowed me to be present with her during her last days knowing that she would be carefully and respectfully taken care of. Hunter brought me her ashes in person and I felt nothing but warmth and care.
    Endswell made the transition as easy as possible. Thank you.”

    – Evie Watts

    “Hunter met my mom and I at the drop of a hat as we were facing end-of-life decision-making moments with my beloved father. He was kind, informative, tender and we felt in awe of his vision and this important venture of Endswell. When dad passed away, Hunter observed our desire to sit vigil with him over the evening, and arranged the family-owned transport folks to come right at 7 am upon our request. Everything and everyone was so gentle and so loving and we felt like we (and dad) had received the utmost care.”

    Christine Ashley

    “I am thrilled with the exceptionally compassionate service provided by Endswell founder, Hunter Beatte, and I’m so thankful that he answered the call to open an aquamation facility here in the Triangle. Aquamation is gentler process, a more ecologically sustainable practice, and a more affordable option. The Endswell facility is a peaceful and beautiful, and Hunter’s kind nature brings a much-needed touch to all those who are navigating end of life transitioning.”

    – Kim Jordan

    “Compassion. Understanding. Kindness. Flexibility. Details matter to him. “Being here now” at its most present describes Hunter Beattie and Aquamation services. He is the most compassionate and professional of anyone I have met in the industry, and was of great assistance during an unexpected complication upon the passing of my 99 year old parent. What a blessing that he found this calling.”

    – Tofu Dave

    “I highly recommend Endswell Aquamation as an environmentally friendly alternative to burial or cremation. Hunter was extremely accommodating and patient in supporting me through all the details of final arrangements, documentation and memorial resources. He takes care of all the things I didn’t have the clarity to manage after my father’s death.”

    – Jean Masse

    “In the wake of the sudden and worst loss of my family’s lives, I will be forever grateful that we were referred to Endswell aquamation. Hunter with Endswell took such amazing care of Ian, and us. He was incredibly responsive, informative, communicative, and met all our requests as a family, even hand-delivering Ian’s urn to us with care on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend. I cannot say enough about the service provided. When your world comes crashing down without warning, I cannot express what those services meant and alleviated for us. Thank you, Hunter, for your professionalism and compassion.”

    – Kathleen Wilson

    “Multiple friends recommended Endswell to us and it was clear from my first interaction with Hunter that he and Endswell were the perfect fit. He was calm, clear, compassionate and a great communicator. The services offered were just what we needed without any pressure. Endlessly grateful for Hunter and Endswell.”

    – Ennis Baker

    “We were so pleased with the services and support our family received from Endswell. Hunter is kind and compassionate and handled the remains of our father with great care. The urns curated in the gallery are beautiful works of art and the perfect vessels to hold the remains of a loved one. I would highly recommend Endswell.”

    – Kari Fine

    “I cannot express how grateful I am to Hunter and Endswell Aquamation for the patient, sympathetic, and graceful handling of my husband’s arrangements. Living out of state, there were some complications that had to be handled and Hunter took care of everything. It was a relief knowing my loved one was being cared for as he wished. In a time of stress and grief, Hunter was a constant calming presence that allowed me and my family to concentrate on each other.”

    – Jodi Virgilio

    “My husband decided on water cremation because it’s so much better for the environment than flame cremation or traditional burial. Just before he died, I contacted Endswell Water Cremation and met owner Hunter Beattie. Throughout the process, Hunter anticipated our needs and made the entire experience easier. He remained compassionate and kind, even as our family made changes. Not only was his service exceptional, but his urn gallery is something to behold. It’s filled with urns of pottery, glass, wood, wool and other materials, some of which can even decorate the wall, all made by local artisans. In short, I am very pleased with Endswell Water Cremation and recommend them without reservation.”
