You told us it would take 7-10 days to get death certificates done and get it signed by the physician. My father past away June 19th, it is now June 30th and the death certificates are not signed. My father is still in the crematory waiting to me cremated and the family who is under so much sorrow and stress is waiting to making burial arrangments but can't because we are now on the 12th day from his death waiting to hear the go ahead to be cremated. We had the deceased daughters drive and fly down from North Carolina hoping to be here for the burial but could not wait any longer and had to leave back to North Carolina before the burial. We gave the funeral home my fathers personal physician's information to speed things up. There should be deadlines by law as to when the funeral homes should prepare the death certificate and deadline for the doctor to sign it.
