Prices subject to change without notice
Indiana Memorial is the leading provider of low-cost cremation and funeral services in
Central Indiana. In these tough economic times, we know more families are seeking
simple, dignified services and are not willing to pay the high prices charged by most funeral
homes, many of which are owned by big corporations. Because we don’t maintain a large
fleet of luxury vehicles or have lavish facilities, we’re able to save you thousands of dollars
without compromising service.

General Price List
The goods and services shown below are those we can provide to our customers. You may choose only the
items you desire. However, any funeral arrangements you select will include a charge for our basic services
and overhead. If legal or other requirements mean you must buy any items you did not specifically ask for, we
will explain the reason in writing on the statement we provide describing the funeral goods and services you
selected.
Basic Services of Funeral Director and Staff
$700
Includes 24 hour availability of staff; initial receiving, handling, and sheltering of remains; the
arrangement conference; obtaining obituary information and placing newspaper notices; funeral or
memorial service planning; consulting or coordinating arrangements with family, clergy, cemetery,
crematory, florists, and other third parties; obtaining and filing necessary authorizations and permits;
and a share of our overhead expenses.
This fee for our basic services and overhead will be added to the total cost of the funeral arrangements
you select. (This fee is already included in our charges for direct cremations, immediate burials, and
forwarding or receiving remains.)

Embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral

immediate burial.
