Like all other fundamentalist Christians, they believe in an afterlife.
Cremation is pretty rare among all rural communities; I don't know if it is forbidden.
Funeral parlors are a relatively young industry. While there were morticians embalming the dead, the bodies were laid out in the home. Most funeral homes were established right after WWII. There is a funeral home in Allen County Indiana that drive their horse-drawn hearse in parades, but it's far too fancy to appeal to the Amish; most Amish there use their own homes, because it's more personal and more convenient to friends and family.
Because of the diaspora of the Amish, the deceased may have children living a plane flight away. Because of the difficulty of communications and transportation, it wouldn't be tolerable to skip embalming.
