What is the average time table for the cremation process?
A interesting question about the cremation time table and the impact on the funeral: What is the average time table from death to cremation so you can have the funeral ? I heard it might take up to 7 days to receive the ashes so you can have the funeral. “Each death and the circumstances are different. Sometimes the cremation could be performed within an hour of the death, which would be usual, to several days, which would be unusual. The average time frame is 12-36 hours after the death. There needs to be written permission from the family, the attending medical doctor and the local medical examiner. As a cremation provider, we help coordinate all the proper authorizations to make the process simple and easy for the families we serve.” This answer from: Dan McGraw, Gill Brothers Funeral Chapels.
