Disbursements
Readings & Sermon
Disbursements are essentially fees that we pay out on behalf of the family. I.e. Doctor's Fees where appropriate; Crematorium/Cemetery Fees and Parochial Fees etc.
Our written estimate will detail the approximate cost of any disbursements. However, you will appreciate that we have no direct control over these charges and they could therefore be subject to slight variations. These costs can then be settled by one single payment, rather than by many different accounts to be settled by the estate.
Doctors Fee or Cremation Forms
No cremation can take place until the cause of death is definitely identified. There are two cremation certificates (forms B & C). Each must be signed by a different doctor. There is a fee for both these certificates. The cremation certificates are not required when the death is referred to the fiscal.
