Steps to Take at the Time of Passing:

Passing in an institution - When the death occurs at a hospital or nursing home, the medical staff should take care of all necessary legal steps. You just need to notify the medical staff that Fremont Memorial Chapel Funeral Home is handling the funeral arrangements so they can have you sign the necessary release paperwork.

Anticipated passing at home - Today, more people with terminal illnesses are electing to die at home under the care of hospice. In this situation, you just need to notify Hospice that Fremont Memorial Chapel Funeral Home is the funeral home of your choice.

Unanticipated death at home or elsewhere - In these situations, immediately call 911. The police and emergency medical personnel will then determine the appropriate steps to be taken. Often, the police can release the human remains directly to our funeral home. In certain cases, the body may need to go to the Medical Examiner's office so that they can determine the cause of death.

Death out of the San Leandro CA area or CA state - If the death occurs outside of the San Jose area or California, you should call Fremont Memorial Chapel Funeral Home at (510) 793-8900. We can coordinate with a local funeral director at the place of death.

At Fremont Memorial Chapel Funeral Home, we provide a quality, dignified and compassionate service at an affordable cost. We understand that the emotional and financial burdens can be overwhelming, and our goal is to alleviate as much stress as possible during this difficult time.
