Mallory-Martin Funeral Home Fax Number — Cremation and Burial Authorizations

Some paperwork at Mallory-Martin Funeral Home still goes by fax; other steps are now electronic. Many states now register the death certificate through an electronic death registration system rather than fax. When fax is the right channel, a secure online fax gets it there without a machine. A two-minute check saves a misrouted or rejected document.

A cremation or burial authorization, a claim form, and vital-statistics details are the documents most often sent. An out-of-town relative often faxes a signed authorization so the arrangements can move forward. Send each as one complete, legible fax so nothing is missing when staff review it. A quick call to Mallory-Martin Funeral Home avoids sending a form the office no longer accepts by fax.

Include the identifiers staff use to match a file: the decedent's name and date of death. Add a cover sheet with your name, your relationship to the decedent, and a callback number. Send it as one combined PDF so the pages stay in order. A missing date of death is a common reason a fax sits unmatched at Mallory-Martin Funeral Home.

Mallory-Martin Funeral Home can receive a fax at any hour, but the office works the paperwork during business hours. The funeral home answers at any hour for a death, but faxed forms are processed during the day. A document sent overnight is picked up when the office next opens. Plan routine documents for a weekday when the office is fully staffed.
