I can tell you that there are few laws pretaining to private citizens taking care of their own. The "laws" pretain to licensed funeral directors.  You can fill out a death certificate, have it filed, work with a cemetery, etc.  I have a complete seminar for people who need names and phone numbers etc.  A private cemetery such as Sunset Hills in Portland does not allow anyone except a licensed funeral director to deliver a body on their property even tho they do not own the plot--interesting.  Most cemeteries are very co-operative however and very helpful.

Please have your funeral director clarify that the "Laws" he mentions about 9:25-9:30 AM are applicable to "licensed funeral directors" and NOT to families who do NOT use a licensed funeral director but are "ACTING" as.

I have buried my husband and my mother without the assistence of a licensed funeral director in a regular cemetery and have helped with several other burials including Willamette National.

I have a complete seminar prepared that I use to teach interested people with all the rules and regulations etc.
