What is different about Levy County

Levy County runs from inland farm towns out to Cedar Key on the Gulf, which is a long way from any airport. Ground time is the variable here, and it is one we plan around rather than pass on to the family.

Families we serve from Levy County most often ask about Mexico and Germany. Whichever the destination, consular requirements are confirmed before a flight is booked, and the shipment departs Gainesville Regional (GNV).

When a death occurs in Levy County

  1. 01

    Under hospice care: call your hospice nurse first, then call us, and tell the nurse your loved one is entrusted to Legacy. We coordinate directly with the hospices serving Levy County.

  2. 02

    Not under hospice care: call 911 before calling us. Once officials give their release, we take your loved one into our care.

  3. 03

    At a hospital or nursing facility: call us and name Legacy as your funeral establishment. The facility handles the rest with us directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you serve my area?

Yes. Levy County is inside our regular Florida service area, including Chiefland, Williston and Cedar Key. Transport is dispatched to the place of death anywhere in the county, and the phone is answered 24 hours a day at (239) 207-0390.

Do I have to travel to Florida?

No. Authorizations are signed electronically and every arrangement can be made by telephone and email, whichever state or country you are calling from. Most of the families we serve in Levy County are calling from somewhere else entirely.

Which airport do you fly from?

For Levy County we normally depart Gainesville Regional (GNV). If another Florida airport gets your loved one home sooner or at lower cost, we will tell you and use that one instead.

How long does an international shipment take?

Most shipments leaving Levy County depart within three to seven days of the first call. The variable is the destination consulate and how quickly the county issues the death certificate, not the flight itself.

What does it cost?

Shipping to another state starts at $1,990, and international shipping at $5,995 with the sealing casket included. Airfare is separate and billed at cost with no mark-up. Families in Bronson and across Levy County receive a written price before anything is authorized, and nothing is added afterward.

Who answers at two in the morning?

A member of our staff, not an answering service. Whether you are calling from Bronson or from another country, a licensed funeral director picks up. Deaths do not keep business hours and neither do we.
