The form called "Appointment of Agent to Control Disposition of Remains" allows an agent and two (2) successors to be specified to handle any and all arrangements pertaining to the disposition of one's remains in accordance with Section 711.002 of the Health and Safety Code of Texas. This form completed and signed in front of a notary eliminates our funeral home from having to get signatures from family members after a death occurs in order for any arrangements to take place. The appointed agent or successor is able to sign all necessary paperwork in the State of Texas.

Sometimes the biographical information that is needed to complete the Death Certificate is not readily available when a death has occured. This form contains portions from the front and back of the Death Certificate that must be filed in the State of Texas. This is the information that will be needed by the staff at Aldine Funeral Chapel when the death occurs. Completing this information in advance may make things easier. Use no abbreviations, print legibly, and leave blank or mark "UNKNOWN" all appropriate fields.

This form, completed in advance, can be kept on file at Aldine Funeral Chapel for your convenience.
