We think you might find the answers to the following frequently asked questions to be helpful:

If the death is unexpected and happens at home in Hyannis, your first call should be to the Hyannis/Barnstable police by either 911 or 508-775-0387. The police department is always open. The Hyannis station is located on Main Street. The police, EMTs, and fire department personnel will be the first responders. After they arrive, and once the EMT’s pronouncement happens, the police officer will contact the medical examiner. If your loved one is not transported to the medical examiner’s office for further inquiry, you should call Caspers at 800-314-1890 to come to your Hyannis home and complete the removal and transportation of your loved one to Caspers. You will need to DocuSign an “authorization for removal” form, so we have your authority to do the removal.

If your loved one was under at-home hospice care and the death was expected due to a terminal illness, you should contact your hospice nurse, who is able to complete the required nurse pronouncement form. Either you or the hospice nurse can call Caspers at 800-314-1890 to come to your Hyannis home and complete the removal and transportation of your loved one to Caspers. You will need to DocuSign an “authorization for removal” form, so we have your authority to do the removal. It is always best to pre-plan and pre-pay with Casper’s simple DocuSign process prior to the anticipated death. This will allow you to focus on your family and let us manage everything on your behalf.

An official certified death certificate may be obtained through the Barnstable Town Clerk’s office that is located at 367 Main Street, Hyannis, MA 02601. The town clerk’s phone number is 508-862-4044. The clerk’s office is open on Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The Department of Veterans’ Services can be accessed through the Barnstable/Hyannis website. This department oversees the Commonwealth’s veteran’s funeral service assistance program, which provides financial service benefits to financially qualified veterans and their spouse. The department is located at 66 Falmouth Road, Hyannis, MA 02632. Its phone number is 508-778-8740. The fax number is 508-778-8745. Our cost for a veteran graveside service at the Massachusetts National Cemetery is $2,985.00.

Of course, your family member’s favorite restaurant or well-visited neighborhood park make for good places to hold an intimate celebration of life. In the Hyannis area, we suggest these restaurants to hold your Celebration of Life: Brazilian Grill, Portside Tavern, The Roadhouse Café, Alberto’s Ristorante, Spanky’s Clam shack and Seaside Saloon, and Not Your Average Joe’s. They are all able to accommodate large groups and are top-rated by locals and regular customers. You might also want to look at holding your event at your local church or service group facilities (i.e., the Elks Fraternal Center). If you prefer to hold your event outdoors (weather permitting), consider these locations: Veterans Memorial Park, Veterans Park Beach, Bismore Park, or Hathaway’s Pond.
