Frequently asked questions

Answers about simple cremation, pricing, and how we serve Southeast Texas families.

help What does the $1,095 simple cremation include?

The advertised amount reflects our simple cremation package for professional services and cremation. Additional merchandise, cash advance items (such as death certificates or newspaper notices), and optional services may change your total. We provide a full General Price List and written estimate before you sign.

help Is my loved one taken to Houston or elsewhere?

No. Simple Tributes is committed to local care. Cremation is provided through Haven of Rest Crematory in partnership with Claybar Funeral Home, so your loved one does not leave the trusted local network for cremation.

help Can I arrange online?

Yes. Use Arrange Now to begin digital arrangements from home. You can also call (409) 242-1534 if you have questions about any step.

help How long does cremation take?

Timing depends on paperwork, authorizations, and facility scheduling. We work to complete required documentation as quickly as possible and will keep you informed throughout the process.

help What is TFSC #4502?

This is our Texas Funeral Service Commission registration number for Simple Tributes. It helps families verify that we operate under state oversight.
