HOW WE CAN HELP
You don’t have to know what to do next.
When someone dies, there are decisions to make and details that need attention. We’ll help you understand what’s required, what your options are, and what can wait.
You don’t have to make every decision at once. We’ll take it one step at a time.
01
We bring your person into our care
We’ll coordinate transportation from their current location and make sure they are cared for.
02
We take care of the details
We’ll guide you through the necessary paperwork, permits, certificates, and decisions.
03
We make a plan together
We’ll talk through your options and help you choose what feels right for your person and your family.
YOUR OPTIONS
Care shaped around what your family needs.
We’re starting simple to keep things as smooth and straightforward as possible for you. Our current offering centers on cremation, with the care and coordination you need built in.
But simple doesn’t mean one-size-fits-all. If there’s something you need that you don’t see here, ask us. We’ll let you know what’s possible.

GOOD TO KNOW
A few things you may be wondering.
You don’t have to know what to ask. Here are a few of the things families often want to know when they’re getting started.
-
Once you reach out, we’ll confirm the legal next-of-kin, and will bring your person into our care as soon as possible. Timing can depend on where they are currently and when they are ready to be released, but we’ll handle the coordination and keep you informed along the way. Please note - some locations will require a release authorization signed by the legal next-of-kin.
-
No. Arrangements can be completed virtually, so you can take care of what’s needed from wherever you’re most comfortable. If you’d prefer to meet with us in person, you’re welcome at the Prism studio by appointment.
-
Timing can vary depending on permits, required authorizations, and other circumstances. We’ll let you know what to expect for your person and keep you updated throughout the process. Generally, our time frame is between 7-10 business days, but can vary.
-
Absolutely. Prism Cremation Care includes our signature urn, The Griot, but you’re welcome to provide one of your own.
-
One certified death certificate is included with Prism Cremation Care. If you need additional copies, we can order them for you for the applicable county fee. We’ll also help you think through how many you may actually need. You may reorder additional copies from us for up to one calendar year.
-
Ask us. Keeping our offering simple doesn’t mean every family has the same needs. Tell us what you’re looking for and we’ll let you know what’s possible, what it may cost, and whether we can coordinate it for you.
