If the funds are directly deposited into a bank account, the bank will need to be notified of the death as well. ~ 11 ~ PROCEDURES REQUIRED PRIOR TO CREMATION A Funeral Director must meet with the next of kin and secure statistical documentation that will appear on the death certificate. Once that is done the document will be hand delivered (unless out of County) to the Doctor’s office at the earliest time available. While we are open for business seven days a week, the Doctor’s office may be closed on weekends and/or holidays. The Doctor’s office will contact the Funeral Home as soon as he/she is able to fill out the cause of death and sign the document. We will then pick up the certificate at our soonest availability, upon receiving the phone call. The document is then faxed to the Medical Examiner’s office for a state required cremation approval. The process may take several hours up to several days. The Medical Examiner’s office has complete and total control on how fast the process will take. If the Medical Examiner’s office should require a review of the deceased’s medical records, it will, and often does, delay receiving the Cremation Approval required by the Funeral Home and the state. The Funeral Home requires the next of kin(s) to sign an authorization for cremation – allowing the Funeral Home to legally proceed with the process. Signature by a spouse, or if there is no spouse, ALL CHILDREN MUST sign the AUTHORIZATION, or if there are no children, Parent(s), or Brother(s) and Sister(s), or Grandchildren – in this order. The Funeral Home can accept a letter by a child/sibling if the whereabouts of any other child/sibling is not known. The person signing will be fully responsible for the child/sibling and state that they know of no such reason why this person would object to the cremation. In the event that the qualifying next of kin are not present, our forms can be faxed/emailed to the authorizing party where these signatures can be secured along with a required notary signature and stamp to be affixed. The document may be faxed back to the Funeral Home. The original signed, notarized paperwork must be mailed back to the Funeral Home as soon as possible. IN SUMMARY, THE FOLLOWING MUST OCCUR: 1. 2. 3. Obtain a completed and signed original of the death certificate Obtain Cremation Authorization from the Medical Examiner’s office Obtain the required authorization from the closest next of kin(s) Once these requirements are in place we will then schedule, (in order of receiving completed documentation), the cremation to take place in our crematory located at our Leesburg facility. There is a high probability that other cremations will already be in the schedule ahead of your loved one. Realize the cremation process from time of death, until we have the Cremated Remains available for disposition may be seven days or more, or in as little as 60 hours (2 ½ days) from the time of death. Under no circumstances may the cremation take place earlier than 48 hours, as mandated by state law. We strive to procure all documentation in the most expedient manner, but please be aware of the limitations and requirements we are under. Do not agree to or initiate a time for service if you have expectations of having the urn present for the services, such as a Graveside service. Some religions will require the Cremated Remains for the Funeral Service (i.e. Roman Catholic), while others have no such requirements (most Protestant religions). Our Funeral Directors will assist you in setting a time of service. ~ 12 ~ AFTER DEATH FOLLOW-UP CHECKLIST ____ 1.
