Usually one of three things happens. The family (1) will keep the urn in their possession (to be kept on the Mantle, Dresser, etc.), (2) scatter the cremains in a location they think their loved one would have wanted, or (3) bury the urn in a cemetery. This is a personal decision to be made by the family.
