Kentucky rules that apply here
Every line links to its statute. Checked Sep 18, 2026.
- Who can authorize a cremation
- Kentucky gives the right to control a funeral, burial, cremation, and other final-disposition decisions according to a detailed statutory priority order. A person named by the decedent in a declaration comes first, followed by the surviving spouse, adult children, parents, grandchildren, siblings, and other people in the statutory order. A person who has been arrested for or charged with an offense that caused the decedent's death is disqualified from controlling disposition under the statute, subject to the statute's court procedures. statute →

Questions families ask
Answers use the figures on this page, not national averages.
Among 3 funeral homes serving Lexington with a checked price list, direct cremation runs from $2,390 to $2,765, with a median of $2,390. Each figure comes from that funeral home's own General Price List, and we checked it against that list; the oldest check was Oct 12, 2026 and the most recent was Oct 23, 2026. We list 17 funeral homes serving Lexington, and 3 of them have a price list we've checked so far.
The total adds these items from each funeral home's price list: direct cremation (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.
