Missouri rules that apply here
Every line links to its statute. Checked Sep 18, 2026.
- Who can authorize a cremation
- Missouri recognizes the right of sepulcher - the right to choose and control the burial, cremation, or other final disposition of a dead human body. The statute establishes who counts as next of kin for these purposes and places the qualifying people in a statutory priority order. "Right of sepulcher" sounds old-fashioned, but in practice it is Missouri's statutory way of defining who can make a very modern decision: burial, cremation, or another lawful final disposition. statute →

Questions families ask
Answers use the figures on this page, not national averages.
Among 7 funeral homes serving St. Louis with a checked price list, cremation with a memorial service runs from $6,230 to $7,580, with a median of $7,145. The middle half of these homes charge between $6,933 and $7,170. Each figure comes from that funeral home's own General Price List, and we checked it against that list on Oct 11, 2026. We list 107 funeral homes serving St. Louis, and 7 of them have a price list we've checked so far.
The total adds these items from each funeral home's price list: basic services of funeral director and staff; transfer of remains to funeral home; other preparation of the body; facilities and staff for memorial service; alternative container. Cemetery or crematory fees charged by third parties, death certificates, and merchandise such as an urn or casket are extra unless a funeral home lists them.
No. Under the federal Funeral Rule (16 CFR Part 453) you have the right to choose only the goods and services you want, and every funeral home must give you an itemized General Price List. The packages here are a comparison aid built from those itemized prices, not something the funeral home sells as a bundle.
The biggest differences are the non-declinable basic services fee, whether the funeral home has its own crematory or uses a third party, and how far it will travel to collect the deceased before a mileage charge applies. Each funeral home's page shows all of these.
