Frequently Asked Questions About Funeraria San Juan Funeral Home - Simpson
What do I do when a death occurs?

Bring the following information to complete the State vital statistic requirements:
✓ Birthplace
✓ Father's Name
✓ Mother's Name
✓ Social Security Number
✓ Veteran's Discharge or Claim Number
✓ Education
✓ Marital Status
Contact your clergy. Decide on time and place of funeral or memorial service. This can be done at the funeral home.
The funeral home will assist you in determining the number of copies of the death certificates you will be needing and can order them for you.
Make a list of immediate family, close friends and employer or business colleagues. Notify each by phone.
Decide on appropriate memorial to which gifts may be made (church, hospice, library, charity or school).
Gather obituary information you want to include such as age, place of birth, cause of death, occupation, college degrees, memberships held, military service , outstanding work, list of survivors in immediate family. Include time and place of services. The funeral home will normally write article and submit to newspapers (newspaper will accept picture and they will be returned intact).
Arrange for members of family or close friends to take turns answering door or phone, keeping careful record of calls. If Social Security checks are automatic deposit, notify the bank of the death.
When I call, will someone come right away?
If you request immediate assistance, yes. If the family wishes to spend a short time with the deceased to say good-bye, that’s perfectly acceptable. Your funeral director will come when your time is right.
Should I choose Burial or Cremation?
Burial in a casket is the most common method of disposing of remains in the United States, although entombment also occurs. Cremation is increasingly selected because it can be less expensive and allows for the memorial service to be held at a more convenient time in the future when relatives and friends can come together.
A funeral service followed by cremation need not be any different from a funeral service followed by a burial. Usually, cremated remains are placed in urn before being committed to a final resting place. The urn may be buried, placed in an indoor or outdoor mausoleum or columbarium, or interred in a special urn garden that many cemeteries provide for cremated remains. The remains may also be scattered, according to state law.
What is the purpose of embalming?
Embalming sanitizes and preserves the body. Embalming makes it possible to lengthen the time between death and the final disposition, allowing family members time to arrange and participate in the type of service most comforting to them.
Does a dead body have to be embalmed, according to law?
The Federal Trade Commission says, "Except in certain special cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a funeral with viewing. If you do not want embalming, you usually have the right to choose an arrangement that does not require you to pay for it, such as direct cremation or immediate burial."
What steps should I take when a death occurs?
The funeral home assists with cemetery arrangements. Bring vital information like birthplace, parents' names, Social Security number, and more to complete state requirements. Contact your clergy and decide on service time and place. The funeral home helps with death certificates, obituary, and notifying family and friends.
Will someone come immediately if I call for assistance?
Yes, immediate assistance is available upon request. Your funeral director can come when the family is ready, allowing time to say good-bye to the deceased if desired.
Should I choose burial or cremation for final arrangements?
Burial is most common, though cremation is gaining popularity as it may be less expensive and allows memorial services at a later, convenient time. Cremated remains can be buried, entombed, or scattered according to state laws.
What is embalming and why is it done?
Embalming sanitizes and preserves the body, allowing time between death and final disposition so families can arrange and attend comforting services.
Is embalming required by law?
Generally, embalming is not legally required except in special cases. It may be necessary for certain services with viewing. If you prefer no embalming, you can choose options like direct cremation or immediate burial that do not require it.
