This covers direct cremation with the minimum alternative container and transfer of the deceased into the funeral home's care. It does not cover mileage beyond the distance this list includes and certified copies of the death certificate, which are priced one at a time. The county permit fee is not in this price. It is charged by the county where the death occurred, not by the county where the funeral home is, so pick that county below or ask the funeral home. Any sales tax is approximate, so ask the funeral home for the exact amount.
This list charges by the mile once the drive passes the distance its price covers. How far that is for a family is not something this figure can know, so no amount for it is in the total. The list says: "(note: all transportation outside of 50 miles will be charged at $2.75 per loaded mile )"

This home's price list does not state a separate crematory fee. The cremation charge itself is not in this total; ask the funeral home.

The casket is not in this total. It varies with the family’s choice, so it is shown beside the figure.

Read this one carefully before you choose it. An immediate burial means no viewing, no service, and nobody at the graveside. The family is not there. The wording and the price draw people in, and most families do not want what it actually is.

Where the death happened
This fee is charged by the county where the death occurred, not the county where the funeral home is. The amount for this state is not on file here, so ask the funeral home.
For the cremation figures: In this list: in MO, 12 counties charging no fee; in IL, Cook County at $150 and 101 counties at $100. A county not in this list charges something too; ask that county or the funeral home.
For the burial figures: In this list: in MO, 12 counties charging no fee; in IL, 102 counties with no fee on file here. A county not in this list charges something too; ask that county or the funeral home.
The counties of the states this one touches are in the list too, each one labeled with its state, because a death does not stop at a state line.
Certified copies of the death certificate
This home's list does not post a price for a certified copy of the death certificate. Missouri charges $14 for the first copy and $11 for each one after it, so those are the figures below. This is what the record itself costs. Ask the funeral home whether it charges anything to order them for you.
One certified copy is $14, and each one after that is $11.
Nobody can tell you how many you will need. Banks, insurers, and pension offices each tend to want their own, so families commonly order several. Set the count and the line says what that comes to.
Where these figures come from
Posted December 1, 2022, checked August 21, 2026. We hold a copy of the document as it read on the day we checked it.
This is the newest price list we found on the funeral home's website as of August 21, 2026. The document itself is dated December 1, 2022.
Still unverified, and so not claimed here: the provider name, which no verified record in this project states yet; who owns this home; how this home operates, meaning whether it runs its own crematory and its own chapel.
Price is not quality. A higher figure does not buy a better funeral. Use these numbers to ask better questions, not to rank anyone.
