If someone dies unexpectedly
In New Mexico, any sudden or unexpected death is reported to the state Office of the Medical Investigator (OMI). You don't need to arrange transport yourself: choose a funeral home, tell them the OMI is involved, and they coordinate the release. The OMI doesn't charge families for its examination.

Military and veteran families
Cannon Air Force Base, home of the 27th Special Operations Wing, is 7 miles west of Clovis. Eligible veterans can receive military funeral honors, a burial flag and a free government headstone or marker, and burial in a VA national cemetery is free. Mention the person's service on your first call to the funeral home, and see our guide to veterans burial benefits in New Mexico.
Cremation in Clovis
Steed-Todd operates its own crematory, so cremation is handled in-house in Clovis. If keeping your loved one in one provider's care matters to you, ask any provider directly: "Do you own and operate your crematory?" See New Mexico funeral homes with their own crematory.
What it costs
Muffley Funeral Home publishes a direct cremation price of $2,265. Ask every provider for its total price, including pickup, the state's $230 cremation-permit fee and tax.
