CREMATION ARRANGEMENT FORM

WELCOME to our innovative Cremation Arrangement Form. This form is for planning At-Need, Imminent, or Future-Need cremation arrangements. Payment can be made after completing the form or the form may be submitted as a quote to coordinate other payment arrangements.

NOTICE: Anyone may select and pay for funeral goods and services such as a viewing, cremation, etc. But only an Authorizing Agent according to RCW 68.50.160 may authorize those services. Only an Authorizing Agent can direct the disposition of the cremated remains.

Who is an Authorizing Agent? An Authorizing Agent is a person with the legal Right to Control Disposition of Remains per RCW 68.50.160. The order of authority is:

  1. SELF- A person has the right to control the disposition of his or her own remains without the predeath or postdeath consent of another person.

CREMATION PACKAGE

Sometimes the Place of Death and the Place of Removal are one and the same. However, a death may occur in one location but we do the removal at another location. For example, the death may occur at a house but the Coroner or Medical Examiner brings the decedent to their facility for an autopsy. For transport purposes, please provide here the location from where we will be doing the removal. No Additional Transport Charges are incured for Thurston or South Mason County. Our primary service area includes: Mason, Thurston, Grays Harbor, Kitsap, Lewis, Pierce, Pacific, Jefferson, and King Counties.

REMOVAL & TRANSPORT

Cremation arrangements can be made online or by phone. The basic package includes general phone consultation with you completing the arrangements here in this online arrangement form. We can also schedule an appointment time to connect with you by phone and complete the arrangement paperwork then. Please select if you will complete arrangements online on your own time,  or by scheduled phone appointment with the use of our staff.

Minimum Preparation of an unembalmed body is required for any viewing (whether paying your respects for 5 minutes or an hour) in order to ensure a safe, clean, and peaceful experience for all. The Min. Preparation charge includes the minimum preparations and use of facility and staff for a one hour ID viewing at the Shelton facility during the week M-F before 4pm. Overtime is anytime after 5pm or Saturday-Sunday. Some families prefer to upgrade to Embalming preparation for viewing even though it is not required for an ID viewing. If you choose "No Viewing" then you acknowledge that no one will need to view the decedent prior to the cremation. Autopsy Restoration is required for viewing if the decedent has had an autopsy. Dressing is optional and if not selected, then we will use the clothing that was on the decedent when they came into our care or a clean gown as needed.

PREPARATION FOR VIEWING

If you plan to bring in a family provided urn or any urn or jewelry not purchased from our firm, then there is a charge added for our service in transferring and placing Cremated Remains into your provided item or items (per 10 items). This charge also covers requests to split the Cremated Remains into multiple sections or portions in order to be given to multiple people. Please provide any instruction for us here.

MEMORIAL VIDEO

Many families need one or more official certified copies of the death certificate to take care of certain estate, probate, or other business following a death. Certified Death Certificates are ordered and obtained from the local health department. You can have our firm order and obtain official certified copies of the death certificate from the health department for you to pickup at our office or for mailing. You may also order and obtain them directly. NOTE: Certain information you provide here in this online planner will be placed on the Death Certificate. If changes or corrections are requested after the Death Certificate has printed and the corrections required are due to family error, then an additional administrative fee of $75 will be incurred to reorder and reobtain new corrected Death Certificates.
