General Information
This information is necessary before a death occurs to make the process as smooth as possible. You will want to have the following information for everyone, in your family or care, in a safe place and readily available:
Name- Social Security Number
- Date and Place of Birth
- Armed Forces Service?
- Usual Occupation (if retired, what they did before) and in What Kind of Business
- Marital Status
- Spouse's Name (even if deceased; if wife, have maiden name)
- Residence
- Highest Level of Education
- Mother and Father's Names
Completing the death certificate will be much easier having this information on hand.
You will also want to know how many certified death certificates will be required to place the deceased's final affairs in order. You will need certified death certificates for life insurance claims, title transfers and Social Security claims. The fee in the State of Colorado is $17 for the first death certificate and an additional $10 for each certificate thereafter.
If your loved one is terminally ill you will want to notify your Hospice or care facility that THE DOVE SOCIETY will be handling the final arrangements. Have them call (303) 460-1120 anytime during the day or week. We are here to promptly take care of your cremation and/or funeral needs.
