2. We will place the deceased in refrigeration until such time as we obtain the cremation permit.
3. We will file the death certificate with the state of Texas, notify the Social Security Administration, and obtain a cremation permit from the county where the death occurred.
4. We will complete the cremation.
5. The ashes will be returned in a standard temporary urn.
6. We can post an online obituary for your loved one on our website at no additional charge. It will stay archived indefinitely and your friends and family can sign an online guestbook, and even write tributes. Email info@beresfordfunerals.com whatever you want to say (no limit). We can even post up to 4 pictures! Scan them in JPG format or bring the photos by our funeral home and we will scan them for you (no additional cost).
