Direct cremation for $1,095 for families in Cape Coral and across Lee County. One call brings your loved one into our care, and the written price comes before anything else.
Cape Coral is a city in Lee County, home to about 233,025 people by the Census Bureau's 2024 estimate. The county seat is Fort Myers. Our office on Oriole Road in Fort Myers is about 13 miles away.
Lee County is home: our office is on Oriole Road in Fort Myers. It is also a county of arrivals, from Cape Coral’s Midwestern and German households to the Haitian and Cuban communities of Lehigh Acres and Dunbar. Serving the place we actually live means the people answering the telephone know the hospitals, the hospices and the roads, and can tell you honestly how long something will take.

The same service fee as everywhere else we serve: transport into our care from anywhere in Cape Coral, refrigeration, every permit and filing, the cremation, a temporary container with your loved one's name, and the cremated remains brought back to you in person. Death certificate copies, the container Florida law requires, and any District 21 medical examiner fee are listed separately on your written price.
Florida law does not allow a cremation until a medical examiner has authorized it. For a death in Cape Coral, that is the District 21 Medical Examiner, which covers Lee County. The same district also covers Glades and Hendry counties. We request the authorization as soon as the death certificate is filed, and that step, not the cremation itself, usually sets the timeline.
Some Florida medical examiner districts charge a fee to authorize a cremation and others do not. Cape Coral is in District 21. If the district charges one, it is passed through to you at exactly the amount charged, and we confirm it on your written price before you authorize anything.
Certified copies are issued by the Florida Department of Health, through its office in Lee County. We order them for you when the death certificate is filed, at the state rate with nothing added, so nobody in the family has to visit an office.
Most cremations take place within three to seven days of the first call. Florida requires a waiting period, and the District 21 Medical Examiner must authorize the cremation, so the timing depends mostly on how quickly the death certificate is signed and authorized.
A licensed funeral director will call you back. For an immediate need, calling is faster and someone will answer.
