Why Choose Milam?
Before choosing a funeral home, ask, “Is the funeral home independent and locally owned and operated?” We are proud to be a family-owned and operated funeral home. Established in 1926, we are the third generation in the Family funeral service. It is very important to choose a funeral home and a funeral director you have faith in. The time surrounding the death of a loved one is difficult, and the most important responsibility of any funeral director should be to have empathy and make this difficult time a little easier and less stressful. Our licensed professionals are not commission-driven, so every family is treated with the utmost dignity and respect and with no sales pressure.
You can expect that your services will include arranging a time with a licensed funeral director to determine your needs. You can also expect the use of our parlor for a private viewing for 10-12 immediate family members and spending up to one hour with your loved one. In addition, our funeral planning team will handle the return of death certificates, as well as your loved ones cremated remains, which will be expedited pending final cremation approvals. And your family can always meet with our on-staff grief counselor.
FUNERAL SERVICE PROFESSIONALS
Education:
- Intense 2 years education for an AS degree, followed by a 1-year state-certified on the job training internship, as well as passing the National Board Exam, then the State Law Exam. This state-required education and training lasts a minimum of 3 years before a state license will be issued.
- Renew state license every 2 years.
- Renewal requires 12 CEUs, including 1 communicable disease course.
Services:
Pick up from place of death, refrigerate or embalm, cremate, give families an opportunity to see and spend time with their loved one once more, meet with families to gather information for death certificates, help with obituaries, help file life insurance, and help with veteran survivor benefits. We are generally able to return loved ones’ cremated remains rather quickly, depending on how swiftly the paperwork is processed. We help families and other survivors begin to heal, by offering various ways to gather with each other and with friends, and help plan meaningful events, such as funerals, viewings, visitations, receptions, etc. We also help families hold a more traditional service with or without a viewing, even when cremation is the option for final disposition. Ceremonies help begin the healing process.
DIRECT DISPOSERS
Education:
- 1 semester containing 2 classes: Mortuary Law and Ethics.
- Renew license every 2 years.
- Renewal requires 7 CEUs, including 1 communicable disease course.
Services:
Very limited to only picking up from place of death, refrigerate, gathering information for death certificate, and cremation. Because Direct Disposers generally run at a much higher call volume than a funeral home, it may take weeks to return loved ones’ cremated remains. Make sure you ask how long it will take before your loved ones’ cremated remains will be returned.
(F.S. Chapter 497.601)
There can be many reasons why prices vary amongst providers. As a licensed funeral home, we can provide many things that the direct disposer cannot by law offer to you, such as announcements of memorial services in the newspaper, opportunities for family members to gather and say goodbye, as well as professionally conducting memorial services.
Per Florida Statutes, F.S.497.601(2):
Direct disposers or funeral directors functioning as direct disposers may not, in their capacity as direct disposers, sell, conduct, or arrange for burials, funeral services, memorial services, visitations, or viewings; hold themselves out to the public as funeral directors, or use any name, title, or advertisement that may tend to connote that they are funeral directors. These prohibitions shall apply regardless of the fact that such individuals may be licensed as funeral directors.
